Summary: Should have bought it years ago
Comment: I am a small, one man 9plus kids) manufacturing business. We're very drill bit intensive. I have a couple of other sharpeners that sorta got the job done, at least let us keep drilling, but they miscut the angles and the chisel point grew over the sharpenings.
I first learned of the Dr. Doc many years ago, but never ordered it. With a large order to process, and the sharpeners I had were inadequate, I finally broke down and bought the DD.
I should have purchased this 8 or 9 years ago when I first learned of it.
1/2" bits that were mishappened, cut too shallow and dreadfully dull took only minutes to restore to like new. Comparing the sharpened bits to brand new show that the angles, are as a new bit, the chisel (my biggest failing point) were formed and sized correctly.
The learning curve, for me, having read the manual before the machine arrived, was on the order of five minutes. Setup and operation are very simple and once mastered setup takes about 30 seconds. The estimates of the number of twists seems to be dead on, even with badly worn bits.
There are at least three machines in the lineup, the 350 is the least and serves me purposes extremely well. I'm very impressed.

Summary: Good tool Fair price
Comment: This is a simple to use tool, with easy to understand instructions. Probably written by someone who speaks and writes English as a first language. My drill bits were in fairly good shape, so it took only seconds to sharpen each bit to precision. This is a must have tool. I only wish they would come out with one that sharpens spade bits.

Summary: Pays for itself.
Comment: If you do handy man stuff, this thing can stop a one hour job from turning into a half day trip to the store. Well worth the money.

Summary: Does what it says..
Comment: The 350X works well. It gives your drill bits that edge to dig into the metal after you sharpen them.
I will be getting a lefty sharpener because sharpened bits would rock on the lefty's.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent results on the first try.
Comment: I read some of the other reviews here about the learning curve. So before I even plugged my Drill Dr. in, I watched the 5-10 minute DVD that came with it (I suggest you review the alignment steps a couple of times). I then walked out into the garage and sharpened a standard bit on the first try with perfect results. Feeling encouraged, I whipped out a masonry bit and sharpened it on the first try too.
Fifty bucks buys a lot of drill bits, but I hate having to run to the hardware store in the middle of a project (and my wife really hates it when I nag her to go for me). This little tool has a permanent home in my shop.
