To me, it depends ... if the drill bits in question are ordinary and you
don't dull them very fast, then new bits may make more sense.  Enco has a
115 piece set on sale for under $30, and individual bits are pretty cheap
too.  1/4" HSS with surface treatment is under $.50/each.  At that price
you'd have to sharpen a lot of bits to pay for that machine.

There's also a place near me that sells drill bits for $4/lb.
