Just curious what your sanding/paint process was like. Thanks!

Members - I'm looking to purchase an engine test stand to use in a high school auto class setting. A stand with adjustability and gauges up front is the ideal pick. There are a lot of brands out there, and I'm looking for what you would suggest as your top pick. Thanks!!

Thanks for the replies! I have two goals 1) teach students to effectively sharpen bits 2)Be able to sharpen the massive pile of dull bits that came with the shop when I arrived. Seems a drill doctor is a satisfactory tool to use and train students to use as well as teach the old school...

I'm 29 and I'm a High school auto and welding instructor. We go through a lot of bits. I'm looking at purchasing a drill doctor. Are they a good tool, are they worth the $$? Is there another alternative? Thanks!
