The woodworking files are one of the best smoothing tools you can have for your wooden surfaces and combined with the rasps – card scrapers – sandpapers ,et.c , give amazing results .

You can find many types and brand files in the markets and the wood stores and of course the Nicholson files , “dominate” this area too , as the rasps area .

Before i’ll go to my top file suggestions , see in this post all the info and file “secrets” .

This 8″ Nicholson round file concave area and circle wood projects is a very nice file starter for you . The metallurgy is beyond words as all the Nicholson products and the diamond abrasive “teeth” will accomplish anything .

This 10″ Nicholson half round file is a very nice supplement for your file area and the above set , becaue it’s a kind of alittle more rough than the usual .

Having a combination of a big rasp and a file in one tool is “never wrong” and if you’ve searched your toolbox to find big rasps and files with no results , you know what i mean .
