Found this in my email a few days ago from Sharp Tools USA. Piqued my
interest so I followed the link to Jeff Farris' website. Got a look at
the price of this attachment. $254.95. Talk about sticker shock.
I'm not predicting a lot of these will be sold.
"The new DBS-22 Drill Bit Sharpening Attachment works with any size
twist drill, from 1/8" to 7/8", fractional or metric. Follow the
simple, well-documented directions to create a grind that resists
walking, cuts cleanly and works better in most materials than a
traditional flat grind. You can choose the optimum drill angle and
clearance angle, based on what material the drill will be used to cut.
The DBS-22 will arrive in the United States in early October. You can
be among the first to own this amazing new attachment. We are
accepting pre-orders now, but will not bill your credit card until
your DBS-22 is ready to ship."

CRAP that is expensive..... You can get a Drill Doctor that does the same
thing for half the price and probably much faster. BTY my Drill Doctor will
do split point also.

Close, but Harbor Freight makes better knockoffs than Jet or Delta.
