[QUOTE="BillM, post: 4344537, member: 45785"] You can supposedly set the angle on the higher end Drill Doctor. Most common angle is 118°, IIRC, some (usually more expensive bits) at 135°. In all the drill bits I've bought or scavenged over the years, I don't believe I've ever gotten one of the 135° bits. OTH, if you work with a lot of different metals, you may well want to grind to different angles. Working in brass, or sheetmetals other angles can save time and effort on finish work. I'm not a model maker, but they have a lot of tips and tricks for that sort of work. Hope to get there myself, one day. [/QUOTE]
