    When you’re squaring up the shoulders on the mill, do you have the collet running against the file guide, or the endmill? If it’s the end mill I suppose you’re using high speed steel instead of carbide so you don’t wreck the file guide?

    I am just using the file guide to hold the knife in the vice. I am not touching it. My end mill is carbide. Kyle Royer "kisses" his carbide file guide with is endmills... I've had marginal success with this.
