I know I'm unearthing an old subject, but I have a few Festool brad point bits that have gotten quite dull.
So I think this modification might help a lot, as the Tormek is the only grinder I can use for this. I was wondering what you would suggest as far as the wheel for doing this is concerned:
- Use the SB-250, and maybe mess up the shoulder of the wheel, that I can always true back in shape later ?
- Use the DF-250, and use as always very light pressure, at the risk of of creating a small zone with higher wear than on the rest of the wheel ?
To be clear, the intent is not sharpening hundreds of brad point bits, just getting my dear ones back in shape.
