Since purchasing the Drill Doctor 500X, I am searching for new projects so I can resharpen my drill bits. I would heartly recommend it for all do-it-yourself individuals. This product works very easily and does a great job sharpening even the dullest drill bits.
With the help of the instructions and especially the DVD, several bits were sharpened very nicely with little effort. I was very pleased with the finished product.
This wasn't quite as easy with the older model. The newer model makes it a breeze to split points when I wish to. Like anything else, practice makes perfect. I would bet most folks who have negative comments, save parts issues, wouldn't if they watched and read first. I bought a Drill Doctor 10 years ago and it has kept my bits sharp. It is also much easier to deal with masonary bits. I recommend this tool to anyone wanting to keep bits sharp and save a bit of cash along the way. As with the first 'Doctor' I owned, it is important to watch the video and read the directions before venturing off into sharpening.
Great product, I had been considering buying one for some time and had so many bits that I finally took the plunge. Well worth the money for this product. Glad I did, when it arrived, read the quick reference guide and watched the very comprehensive DVD included with the package, then started sharpening my bits for extended use.
For me, this tool was very easy to learn to use and it does a great job.
