From the other discussion on Drill Doctors, I was reminded that I don't have a good solution for sharpening brad point bits.
For larger bp I use my 1" belt sander/grinder. It works fairly well if I get the right angle on the inside edge. Not real good but sorta OK.
Smaller bits are the challenge. I can touch up some with a diamond Ez Lap sharpener, the kind that is about the size of a tongue depressor. But that is not effective for a dull bit.
How can one sharpen a brad point bit properly?
