Just bought a drill sharpening attachment for the AR5-c and fitted it. Had to buy most of a machine so now got extra spares!

The drill grinder is marked for different sizes, but I am not sure about the lip rest – does the flute-land corner touch the top or side? [not my machine, just a handy picture]

Also the drill projection is unknown and has a big effect on the relief.

Does anyone have a manual that describes using this attachment?

Thanks

Gary
