Comments by "Job38Four" (@job38four10) on "Which Drill Bit Sharpener is Best? Let's find out! Chicago Electric, Drill Doctor, Bosch, Goodsmann" video.
Lots of people say yeah but I can sharpen a drill bit by hand. Well sharpening a bit by hand is easy-ish if the bit is 1/2" or bigger but when getting below 3/8 it really is hard to get a consistent good cutting edge, and that's where some sort of drill bit sharpening guide helps. Good review on sharpening guides.

My biggest draw back for Drill Doctor is, it works great for dozen drill bits then not so good because the stone wears down or changes shape requiring a new stone every 1-2 dozen bits at $25.00ea.

@14:45 I agree with your General grinding attachment choice, if anyone has a drill they have a bench grinder, then all that's needed is grinding wheel dressing tool. The Drill Doctor like you said is the best but what no one knows it's only the best when used only about a dozen times. I've had two of them and after sharpening 3/8-1/2 drill bits a dozen times the Drill Doctor no longer puts a chisel edge on the bit, the drill bit starts getting a rounded chisel edge which is NO GOOD, no matter how you slice and dice you need that chisel edge. So thats where the General grinding attachment would be better, just keep the wheel dressed.
