Hi,I have worked out a way to sharpen my gun drill on my lathe, the drill is set up in 4 jaw chuck and my tool post grinder with fine diamond wheel is set up to grind the angles on the front of the drill using the cross slide and top slide. Now there is a bit of galling on the drill side by the tip, is it ok to grind the side smooth to clean this up so it cuts true and I know this will make it a bit smaller and will cut a different size hole, but not much needs to be removed. The hard bit will be to get the tip turning true on the three side ribs. Thanks for any help, Cheers homebrew.357.
