How to Sharpen a Drill Bit in 30 Seconds: The Simplest Technique

🔧Using two hexagonal nuts put together, you can create a 120-degree angle that coincides with the drill bit sharpening angle.

📏Drawing a 60-degree angle on a piece of paper and replicating it on the grinder allows you to create a 60-degree angle on the drill bit.

💦Dipping the drill bit in water while sharpening prevents it from becoming overheated and tender.

🪚Cutting the nut in half and attaching two iron cutting stone discs increases the durability of the drill bit sharpener.

✅Ensuring the drill bit is evenly round and the slant on both sides is symmetrical achieves a sharp and precise result.

How long does it take to sharpen a drill bit using this technique?

—You can sharpen a drill bit in just 30 seconds using this technique.

Can I use any type of grinder for sharpening the drill bit?

—It is recommended to use a grinder with a cutting wheel to achieve the best results.

Do I need any specific tools to create the drill bit sharpener?

—To create the drill bit sharpener, you will need an iron bar, hexagonal nuts, iron cutting stone discs, and a grinder.

How often should I sharpen my drill bits?

—It is recommended to sharpen your drill bits whenever you notice a decrease in their performance or when they start producing rough holes.

Can I use this technique on different sizes of drill bits?

—Yes, you can use this technique to sharpen drill bits of different sizes, just ensure the angle is adjusted accordingly.
