If you're using a drill press, be careful applying pressure radially to the bearings (i.e. pressure in the plane of the support table). This will likely cause your bearings to wear out if you do that a lot. Drill presses are designed for "up and down" pressure, but not "left and right" or "forwards and backwards" pressure.

Some sharpening systems use a spinning disk are probably fine (basically up and down pressure), but using a drill press as a drum sander is not recommended.
