Is there a design for a wishbone drill sharpener? No point in reinventing the wheel if one is available.

Hi Andrew, just found a link to some earlier posts where it mentions a design in mew 251. I haven’t got this copy so can’t confirm, other’s on the forum may be able to.

Hello DC31k,

Thanks for the tip, the reference doesn’t cover an article on making a wishbone sharpener. It just refers to MEW 251, unless I have missed something.

Would you believe that MEW 251 is missing from my collection of MEWs, probably explains why I could not remember it! Time to see if I can get the archive to work for me.

Thanks,

Andrew.
