Can I use this to sharpen countersink bits?

Jesse, I've sharpened a hundred or so drill bits with my tormech. It does a beautiful job. As far as counter sinks go I don't see how. The internal geometry of the tormech wouldn't work for counter sinks. I realize that counter sinks have the same point angles as drill bits but trust me you won't sharpen counter sinks with the tormek. Edward

Haven't tried it yet, but i think it would work on single and double cutters only. Getting the depth set and angle of cut will differ pending on the type of shaft your countersink has.

I don't see why not. I use it to sharpen all kinds of things. Just keep in mind it is a small tool. The sharpening part is 3/4 inch in length.

Yes. This isn't a blade. It's a chunk of metal, you'd have to do ALOT of sharpening.

Based on their advertisement and instructions "Sharpens 3/32-inch to 1/2-inch standard twist bits and creates split points". I don't use split points so I can't speak to how good a job it does.

Marktwo of the bits were out of round, when I went to use themI would not recommend this countersink attachment

Yes, just be sure your shun is not a single sided edge. I have two shuns and it sharpens them beautifully.

I have not tried it. The blade is small, so you would definitely want to cut up the pieces into small bits.

If you use hex ended drill bits you can. However, the driver turns slowly so it would only work for soft material with not a lot of depth needed. I only use it for started holes for screws.

Yes it will as long as they are standard "twist drill" type of drill bits and not spade bits, aka "paddle bits," forstner bits, brad tip bits, or the like. It will actually sharpen drill bits up to 1/2" in diameter. The 12" length of the drill bit is not an issue. However, obviously the longer a drill bit gets, the more you may want and/or need an extra set of hands to help support it and the Drill Doctor itself.

I use a very dark and dense stone as used in sharpening scalpels. The problem with this fine edge is it needs frequent stripping to keep the burs off.

I use mine to sharpen chisels and plane irons ins the shop, but I see no reason why they wouldn't be great on knives also. I use a little water on the stone to keep it from clogging with iron filings, of course then I oil the tools well after sharpening to prevent rust.I've give mine hard daily use for 4 months and it shows no sign of ware. I have no idea how long it will last but it seems like a long time.

You would most likely use the metal blade. In my experience, the metal blades are not very good in this kit. It's hard to source any good metal bits, period.

Sorry, you cannot use the 2 items you've listed for this product. The chuck can only fit a one sided 1/4" hex bit tips.

Yes. All Drill Doctor models use diamond sharpening wheels and can sharpen High-Speed-Steel, Carbide, Cobalt, TiN Coated and Carbide-Tipped Masonry bits.

Drill doctor says it can sharpen carbide bits. I have not tried it on hammer drill bits.

Beth,The carbide and or diamond particle bits should be able to. Try them out on a piece of scrap material first. Be sure your material is held down so it won't move. Try a gentle touch first.You may want to "GOOGLE" DREMEL bits for cutting stone and hard wood...there maybe more robust bits for that purpose.What do you make?I hope this helps.Tom Lewis 602 214 4617

I use it more or less to polish the edge. So to answer your question I would use it after the 1000 grit super fine stone. If I am not mistaken is about 2000 grit and is not used to sharpen at all just to give the edge a polished look.
