I sharpen drill bits on the bench grinder. With a bit of practise you can do it by eye with no guide, but you need to know the geometry you are aiming for. I was taught how to do it, but I'm sure there'll be videos on the 'net. I also was shown how to regrind masonry bits to cut hardened steel, which is handy.

I used my bench grinder to sharped a kitchen knife once - very sharp, but no much knife left

6mm just for bolts to fix the number plate as the `Halfords double sided tape finally gave up

I have the Devon HD bumper and used Halfords heavy duty sticky pads to attach the number plate, I have had no problems.

I marked up the location of the pads and cleaned off the area on the bumper with methylated spirt to remove and oily film. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to us off.
