In this short video I explain a few essential techniques that need to be mastered to ensure neat and accurate filing work.
It's not difficult to do but it needs to be practiced with great attention.
Even the most simple filing requires good hand and eye coordination. Actually it goes deeper than that. Both hands work together to feel and understand how the piece is held and re positioned in time with the file blade motion while simultaneously feeling how much pressure should be applied and exactly where. Its important to watch the file on the piece to gain understanding of what's being done and make any necessary adjustments to achieve the desired result.
