Such trifles as drills for wood or metal are needed in the household by every real man who does at least something around the house. But, unfortunately, drills tend to become dull. What to do, buy new ones? Not at all necessary, they can be sharpened without much labor and tools at home with your own hands. So, if you have a few or more dull drills, now is the time to sharpen them.

Step 1
For sharpening, you need sandpaper 80. You need to cut a small piece out of it. Photo: youtube.be/odAfkaoxJWU
Step 2
Then, using a stapler, fix the cut piece on a block of wood of a suitable size. Photo: youtube.be/odAfkaoxJWU
Step 3
We take a screwdriver, put a blunt drill on it and in reverse mode we begin to drill holes in the bar through the fixed sandpaper. Photo: youtube.be/odAfkaoxJWU
You need to drill at low speed until the drill passes the sandpaper.
Step 4
Drill holes in the sandpaper as long as there is free space. At least ten pieces need to be drilled. Photo: youtube.be/odAfkaoxJWU
Step 5
Now, on the free part of the wooden block, check the sharpness of the drill by making a hole in the tree. Photo: youtube.be/odAfkaoxJWU
The drill sharpened and began to perform its functions much better. You can experiment with sandpaper and choose a coarser grit.
