Has anybody successfully sharpened a Spotting Drill and if so how did they do it?

I have tried, using a Picador grinding jig, and although I set the angle correctly the resultant shape was not as good as the original.

Thanks

Jon

Ideal candidates for four-facet point, I would have thought.

Tracy Tools have got spot drills in stock, but not on their website. Give them a call (and tell them it was via MEW!) or there's a link here

Thanks to Pete Duckett for letting me know.
