You can either use files you own or order one from us along with a file brush to keep your files clean.

See our Tuning Tips with instructions and videos on how to use the SkiVisions File Base Flattener.

Notes regarding files and this tool:

  • Make sure the file teeth are orientated correctly to cut as you push the planer from tip to tail
  • Use sharp files and keep them clean. DO NOT FORCE the cuts. LET THE FILE DO THE CUTTING in multiple, thin passes. Take your time and recheck often with a backlit true bar.
  • Non-chrome files are less expensive and sharper than chrome files but wear out a lot sooner. If you only need limited edge filing, the non-chrome files are a good value
  • The chrome files we carry are ski and snowboard edge hardness specific
  • Clean files with a brass brush and/or file card
  • DON'T BACK DRAG FILES! Files are not saws. It'll dull them very quickly
  • If you've hit rocks and created sparks, the edges will be work hardened and trash your files. Use a stone on these sections first
  • A coarse or super coarse file is basically a mill bastard file and are tried and true edge files
  • A crosscut file is nice option vs bastard files and work well on base material and repairs.
  • A body/pansar/radial file is another option that also works well on bases and repairs
  • The slot is currently routed at 2.8mm and provide good purchase for the file. This is too deep with a 60 mil/1/16"/1.65mm magnetic strip for many files. 120 mil/1/8"/3.3mm are on their way and due 'Fridayish'.
  • You could also micro manage thicknesses to your heart's desire by adding tape first or on the file.

Here are the replacement file options with descriptions we carry.
