How to Sharpen a Drill in Seconds!

Keeping your drill bits sharp and oiled in essential for accurate and quick working. Allowing you to make jewellery at your best potential.
It may be tempting sometimes to battle on with an under-performing drill but
it actually costs you time. Especially as a drill can be perfectly sharpened in just a few seconds. Also considering the extra pressure needed to be applied to a blunt drill to make it cut is fatiguing and can cause pain in your wrist. You also run the danger of over heating the drill as it rotates which can burn of any lubrication applied resulting in it gripping the hole and snapping.
As your pendant motor will have to work so much harder to rotate the drill this will also cause unnecessary wear and tear to it. Even starting a new hole with a blunt drill can be troublesome as it is more likely to slip out of position as soon as it rotates. The lack of sharpness does not allow any 'bite' to help the drill stay seated and pull down in to the metal.

Sharpening your drill bits is an easy thing to do and literally takes just seconds so there is no excuse!
