Drill bit sharpener
Have just tried this tool with surprisingly satisfactory results. I'm a mechanic with 30 years experience at trade and have offered plenty of curses to drill bits that have worn or snapped at the most inconvenient moments.
Now, I'm NOT saying the drill bits I just sharpened were absolutely perfect, but...
This tool would definitely come in handy for those fellow tradesmen who work from a van for example, to quickly dress tools in an emergency, when working away from home or a workshop.
I used a cordless drill to operate the grinding wheel, and suggest you ensure you adjust the alignment of the tool and power tool if you have to, to avoid possibly causing damage to this tool - power tools, their housings and batteries vary in size as we all know.
Hides easily in a toolbox. It IS made of plastic, so some care will be needed to ensure its longevity.
If a company were to make a metal one, I would definitely buy it. Until then, this one will reside in my box of handy tools.
I watched a video demonstration of this tool on a certain popular social media channel, and having just given this a try, I would agree with this chap and give this tool a 'thumbs up".Read full review

Too much plastic!
It is not solid enough to do many drills all at the same time. It is just for occasional usage. No trades person should buy this item. There are no bearings in the unit and the grinding wheel spindle just turns in a plastic holder. It melts easily and soon goes out of alignment. The grinding wheels are quite soft and do not last very long. The design is quite good but the materials that it is made from will let you down. Please avoid, there are better products on the market for the same price. Read full review

Ideal for the amature enthusiast
These retail at about fifteen quid.
It's made from plastic and has plastic bearings. It is certainly not for heavy use, but for the amature using at home it is ideal.
I've sharpened about 10 drill bits.
I've used them to drill into steel and they cut great.
You just need to exercise a little restraint and patience and you'll get perfect results.Read full review

It works well
Seen several reviews on this product on facebook and must agree that it is a great piece of kit. Sharpened lots of old hss drill bits and masonry ones and they came out very well. Also did a bunch of bits for my neighbour as well and it is still going strong. I decided to buy a spare wheel which should now last for ages. RecommendedRead full review

A well designed piece of kit.
It's a well designed sharpener and should be a good addition to the tool kit.

Excellent Product
This is a very good quality, well designed product. It is a little complicated to learn at first, but after learning once is fine. It works very well.

Great quality
This is a cleverly designed and very effective tool, but It definitely pays to read the instructions as it's not obvious how it works.. The plastic parts are all of excellent quality, and it seems to be strong and hopefully long-lasting. I think the grinding wheels are available as spare parts. It quickly revitalises blunt drill bits, so should pay for itself pretty quickly.Read full review
