Mr Pete is awesome, the amount of knowledge he holds is amazing, I'm glad he making these video so it won't be lost to time

[randysmith]

Have you ever ground a vertical flat, parallel to the center line of the drill bit on the cutting flutes?

Thank you Mr Pete. I wish I had the time to spend with a good friend of mine who was a first class machinist. Interestingly at work he operated a very big lathe most of the time, yet he was also expected to operate any machine in the shop of course. In his home shop he did anything and everything. It was always a joy to visit him. He loved making steam boilers (up to 6 inch) steam models, radio controlled aeroplanes, he repaired musical instruments. And I thought it was always funny that he could buy steam valves for his steam models but he would make them from scratch. You remind me so much of him.

In all videos about this machine I have never seen a demo of what the rear knob on 13B does and how to do it. Can you show?

[nomercadies]

Morning Lyle.
Bought mine when you introduced me to #1

Great video. However, which wheel (CBN or SDC) is best for HSSCo drills that typically contain 5% - 8% Cobalt ?

Hey, going to watch rest of video but old boss bought us a drill doctor which I have halfway mastered, my biggest tip is to scrunch down the tightness after setting tip. One or 2 clicks positive if drills being sharpened have split tips. If you are splitting tips grind first and then reset tips then split.
Ok I don't like drill doctors. But I have found out how to make them work. Bigger bits I have a Starrett drill point guage and I put on my good glasses. Damn I hate getting old, I used to be able to see .005 no problem.
Best drill point grinder I have ever used was a Diamond brand, expensive piece of kit, center of center drills no problem, could play with clearance and make special countersinks. Great machine.
Might have to talk new boss into one of these vevors, just watching to see your recommendation.
Thursday, our cnc guy kept bringing me drill bits to touch up, gee. Drill doctor got it done. He didn't come back.
I need to get n me a set of those magnifiers that go on my head like yours. Ok I have got a set at home but none at work, just a big lighted magnifier. Other guys use it too.

I bought one about a year and a half ago and really like it. Love your videos on them, and I hope you can explain in the next video what the knob on the top is for. could find nothing in the instructions on it. Thanks

Hi Mr. Pete,
I bought a 13B a few months ago and somewhere in the information while investigating the machines before I purchased it, I found something that makes me think the Chinese that don't understand English believe drill bits are called end mills. There was some misinterpretation and I don't know where I saw it, but it answered the same question you are presenting.

I also bought a Vevor MR 20G that grinds up to 3/4" bits. I have used it some, buI had most of my hundreds of bits already sharpened on the 13B. I almost sent it back until I realized the collets were dirty. The 3/4" (20mm) collet is about the limit of the machine and is very thin. It apparently had something on the collet and I couldn't get it to seat. I finally put the collets in my ultrasonic and lubricated them with WD 40 lithium grease and they work fine.

I have wanted a Tormek T8 for a long time top sharpen my hundred knives, so I am going to spring for the extra ~$400 and buy the drill bit sharpening kit. It will sharpen up to 7/8" bits. It uses the facet sharpening method rather than the radial method most sharpeners use. It looks to be a lot slower, but it will be interesting, I have never sharpened using the facet method. It looks very precise and is probably a better way to go with some bits?
It will be interesting!

I think that one of these Vevor drill sharpeners will be what my next bonus check at work will going to.

I have been eagerly awaiting the "next" video in hopes of seeing how to sharpen end mills as described in VEVOR's advertisement. After watching your video this morning I was extremely disappointed in finding out the sharpener fell short of this application. I think VEVOR should compensate the buyers of this unit in some fashion. As for the sharpening of the drills, I am very pleased. I purchased the unit for the very reason it was stated it would sharpen both drills and end mills.

Will any of the 3 Machines sharpen LEFT HANDED or counter clockwise bits? I bought out a Bankrupt Machine shop and they must have LOVED them because I have thousands of all sizes of Lefties!

[dbacp]

Just checked this evening, both 12A and 13B out of stock.
None of the updated descriptions mention or advertise either as an End Mill Sharpener.
There are NO OTHER machines listed on the site as end mill sharpeners.
However, the CATEGORY these are in is still Home/ Machining/ Grinding & Sanding & Finishing Tools/End Mill Sharpener

[TwiztidPain]

I am taking a guess, but some machines don't always use stub bits. That might be their thought, not meant to work with stub drills.

[mrb]

Mr Pete, I did what I was not supposed to do, and I adjusted the split point knob and set screw and sure enough, I’m having issues. Go figure lol. Would you mind measuring the clearance between the adjusting arm? I’m trying to reset the arm back to factory settings. Thanks!!!

Learning from the Master. Long live, Sensei!

[chrischapel]

I recall watching Keith Fenner wanting a hole to be perfectly symmetrical, he went to the grinder and knocked off on side of the drill tip and wanted only one chip...

[flashgordon]

I've not used this machine, but it looks like you put the collet in backwards at 7:32. When you showed the 1/4" bit in the collet at 7:14, the collet was inserted with the tapered collet head to the tapered section of the holder.

[RobertD-xvxb]

Are the wheels the same or is 2nd one straight and used for endmill at 90 deg
