What happens here

Garren addresses the damaged drill bit and uses it as an opportunity to demonstrate the Millner-Haufen sharpening wheel. He holds the chipped drill bit to a rapidly spinning 150-grit diamond sharpening wheel, carefully grinding the tip to restore its edge. He notes that while not a 'great' edge, it is sufficient to continue the demonstration.

Goal: Show how to sharpen a damaged drill bit using a diamond sharpening wheel.
