I'm not a bladesmith of any kind, so I can't see me ever making a tool like this, but it was very entertaining to watch you make yours. Thanks, Randy!

Thank you for stopping in.
Edit: Congrats on 30k!! I'm stealing that Golf Ball trick for file handles, that's an awesome idea! I have tons of files that don't have handles and they won't fit properly into the handles I do have. I was going to buy some wooden door/drawer pulls and make handles from a Joe Pie suggestion but I have hundreds of old Golf Balls so I might as well save my money and use them for this. File Guide turned out great Randy. 👍👍

Thank you Harold, I hope you are doing well.
Randy, I started working with files 70 years ago and have worked in and around machine shops most of my life. Had I ever been caught using a file on Catbide as you did, most of the places would have fired me or run me off if they weren't paying me. The two mild steel bars with pins and screws are nice. Use them as is and file or bring them flat if it is ever needed. Your files will last longer.

They are really just a stopping point, you do not file against them really.

If you don't file against them, why not use scrap steel? Spend your time making knives to sell for money.
Thanks Randy, I like your clip system to hold the guides - I might use HSS guides simply because it's cheaper and easier to get. Like you've said a couple of times, there isn't (or shouldn't be :)) much file contact with the guides so HSS should be fine for the few times mine will get used.

Yep for sure it will work. I thought about just making it from O1 or A2 or just about any good heat treatable tool steel. It would be much simpler. Thanks for stopping in.
Enjoyed the discussion/build/craftsmanship

Congratulations on 30K Randy!! That was a nice build.I'm not a knife maker ( I do steam engine machining and builds) but I could see where that would be useful for other types of precision filing or contouring work.

@@RRINTHESHOPI have a set that was intended for chisels, it came with a lap sharp I own. Add some springs between the rails and it will pop them open as you loosen it.
Congratulations on 30K. I had no clue what that was for until the end. Very cool Randy.🥂

Hey why don't you use cutting fluid when you use the annular to take stock off the top? Bits are cheaper so don't care if you burn them out?

Carbide endmill and fairly soft material.
Randy! I understand a filing guide. I don't understand a carbide filing guide. when you go up against it, there go the teeth on the file? or am I delusional?
@RRINTHESHOP

Thank you. I understand the concern. You are not filing very much and not much pressure. There is only contact when you reach the carbide and then you stop.
Hi Randy, Do you need to roll (gently round over) the edges on the carbide so the file glides over it rather than knocking the teeth off the file?

Thank you Barry. I actually did not think about that. I think that would be a good idea.
I'm a knife maker, not a machinist of any kind so we’re gonna see if I can make one that’s worth a crap without the use of a milling machine.

Very doable. If you use water misting on your grinder I would make the parts from stainless steel. This guide works awesome. Thanks for stopping in.
