resharpening a carving bit

[lovejoys]

Hello, I have a company that re-sharpens my bits. They have a minimum order. They will only do the 1/16th carving bits. So, what I am offering is a bit exchange. You would send me your old bits and I will send you re-sharpened bits. If they are sent with adapters, they will come back with the same kind of adapters. You will not receive the exact bits back as I have a large stock of re-sharpened bits on hand. This eliminates the turn-a-round time. You will handle the shipping to us and we will handle the shipping back to you, US shipping addresses only. I am asking for a minimum order of 5 bits per mailing. Each re-sharpened bit is $20. If you wish to contact us for more information, please send a PM through here. Thank you

The five minimum is hard if you only have a few, I only have 3 and out of those only one needs sharpening. Also new bits are 26-30 on ebay so I am not so sure about spending $20 to sharpen one. Just my 2 cents.

I think everyone has a good point. So what do you do with all your bits then? If the bit comes back like new then isn't that a win? I can only speak for myself as I have many worn bits that could use sharpening.

Ok Guys I do understand that the 5 bit thing is hard for the guy that only use 1-2 bits every 2-3 months this is not a fix for you guy. the cost of shipping and re sharpening is the same as a new bit.
This is set up for the people that are going to use 5-10 bits a month.
