So cool you are teaching your kids, all that kind of knowledge will be lost unless dads make sure to pass it on.....

Kids ( at Any age ) are tougher than you think, and certainly tougher than they let on. They don't become tougher by being given weaker tasks. Work'em... ☆

[@davidhayter8516]

That is how you sharpen an auger type bit. Few people know it, but there is actually a special file designed to sharpen these bits.

[@AbleMan.2178]

Good job Grandson. (I took care of that detail for him as I'm still here)
