How do I sharpen this D-Bit w/o losing the positive rake ?
I have a stone...

You can't hone the outside now. That is why we said to polish the tool before cutting or grinding it.
Hone the flat now. That will sharpen it pretty well.
You are doing good, keep up the good work.
I think Gary is enjoying teaching you. How old is he?
PS
Be careful if you try valve grinding compoun, it will make the cavity too large in a hurry.
I am beginning to wonder if we are going to have a winter also.
We are still wearing our shorts and flip flops.
I finally see a little snow on the mountains west of me this morning but it will be long gone by this weekend when it is supposed to warm up again.
