Yes, very well I'd say. There is a learning curve but stay with it and read the directions. When I first got mine I sharpened 130 bits in about 90 minutes so I figure I saved myself 2 or 3 hundred bucks right there. I don't use it a lot but I sharpen a lot when I do.
+1 on learning curve comment.
My advice would be to invest your learning curve time in learning to sharpen bits freehand on a bench grinder with properly dressed wheel - it can be done, best to learn on old broken bits.
Good luck with that
I learned how to sharpen drill bits while working on screw machines in the '70s.
I think most people will be able to teach themselves quick effective drywall mudding before they will learn how to correct sharpen a drill bit.
If it were easy, there would be no Drill Doctor.
Good luck.
