Sam Salvati Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 pickle off the scale in vinegar overnight it will save your files. If you find you hate filing and it is going too slow, then your file is probably worn out. Also, google drawfiling, a fast and controllable way to remove material, very good technique and very satisfying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshua.M Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 i have draw flied before, i got a new bench grinder with a 2/24 belt sander on the side, i was thinking of using that as a way of removing the worst of the scale, but i like the pickling idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
