Picked up a black diamond drill grinder

Congratulations on finding that fine tool, Wayne. I am green with envy.

Years ago I operated a small drill pointer, made in Switzerland as I recall. It ground a primary and secondary relief, and was limited to small drills only, 1/4" and smaller as I recall. . It's rare to have a pointer deal with the small drills in an acceptable manner. Can you give us more details on the Black Diamond grinder? Where it is made, for one.

It appears that the company's web site is no longer working. Now it only exists in the wayback machine. */ Lane

Thanks, Lane. It didn't take long for me to understand why Waynemak is so pleased with his! I have always assumed you'd have to invest a considerable sum to sharpen small drills.

Hey Wayne,

Me too, at an tool & die shop auction about 5 or 6 years back. Paid $65 Cdn as I recall, and it came with most of the collets. Great machine!

Take care.
