Every once in a while a little rust or rock ding requires a cleanup of the 'base edge'. I didn't want to shell out another $50+ dollars for yet another tool, so I designed this guide to let me do the most common factory base edge angle of 1 degree with a file. ####Design Notes: - Supports files up to 25mm wide (1") - Supports files with minimum length of 70mm (2 3/4") If there are any modifications or additions that could help you out, please leave a comment and we'll see what we can do. Cheers! ####Printing Notes: - Print with .2mm layer height to obtain proper thickness for 1 degree angle (.1 if you desire) - Printed with 70% infill for strength - Printed with "1 DEG" emboss face down ("L" shape sticking up). - Printed with NO Supports. My printer was able to handle the 25mm 'bridges' with no supports. If you have issues, you will want to add a support inside the 'windows' on each end.
