Well, i... sharpened !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! earlier tonight using my cheap diamond “stone” (two-sided #400 and #1000 grain).
After having finished my business (sorry i didn’t plan to post about that at first so i took no photo before ) , i got to play with the “new” phone (Galaxy S10) macro capabilities, using an additional watchmaking magnifier in front of the phone ( that we can see in some photos).
U sing the 2x zoom, it sometimes (depending on the lighting i believe) switches between the main sensor and the tele one which wasn’t the most practical when having the magnifier half in front of the other objective and holding the phone on one hand and the magnifier on another (and having to tap the screen for the focus) .

First screwdriver :
Dirt, everywhere !
Tried with the flash but with the magnifier in front of the flash...
I should have done a bit more on this one
—
Second screwdriver :
It’s not perfect but sensibly better than before which was already totally acceptable but i like to have an “aggressive” blade that can come in handy when you need to remove gunk inside a screw head for example.

I got a foredom grinder and flex shaft tool. Makes that kind of work easy. But I've been buying laser etched screwdrivers recently, and those things are something else.

A rado, an entera-matic, and an IWC; nice collection.
BaconSandwich is tasty.

Don’t mind me asking, but how much did your diamond “stones” set you back? I’d eventually like to pick up a set to sharpen my wood chisels and planes.

I didn’t buy it from Aliexpress but from a “local” marketplace that i have free fast shipping from so i paid a little bit more but something l ike 12 or 14€ if i recall correctly.
The exact same is sold around 9-10€ including shipping by multiple Aliexpress stores .
It seem to exist in two different sizes and there are multi ple coarseness available (models like mine are two sided, mine being a 400/1000) , the good thing is that it’s easy to find another stone for cheaper than the whole set with the holder (which is doing the job pretty well).

That’s actually a lot less expensive than I was expecting!
