I just use mine to sand things. I guess I'm not very creative.

Sand, cut, polish, sharpen, etch, etc. I sharpen my garden tools with it.

Thanks for the ideas! I was just trying to sharpen scissors the other day and was using a chef's steel. Didn't work. What bit would you recommend for something like that?

You can actually get a sharpening attachment for it that screws into the neck of the tool. Then you use a grinding disc and pass the scissors across it at the set angle. Only need one pass usually. And take the scissors apart first lol
