I am about 9 weeks short of retirement after 44 years in the Machinist`s trade. For my first 23 years in the trade, I never had the option of a machine to sharpen my drills for me. Therefor, I learned to sharpen all my drills by hand. About a year ago, I decided that I was then qualified to buy a Drill Doctor. The 750 model is the way to go if you are going to buy one. It takes a bit of practice to get a feel for it, but like I say about learning to use ANY kind of machines-- "It`s just a matter of making friends with it". Most of the time, I still rough the points in by hand (force of habit I guess) and put the final touches on them with the Drill Doctor. I found the best deal for the 750 model on e-bay. If I recall, even with shipping, I saved about 30 to 40 dollars over buying it at a local store in the end. It is well worth the investment.
