I use sharpening stones from course to fine with oil on the stone. One point needs to be flat and the moving point needs to be convex. The points for motors are usually tungsten which is very hard. The points need to be separated to do this. The oil on the stone keeps stone particles from embedding on the point contact. Finish with the finest stone ya have…like an Arkansas stone or equivalent. I used the wives fingernail file once and since the point is harder than the file…she noticed right away the file was dull and somehow was my fault..;)
