OK guys, Sears has several of those files. For example, they have an 8 in round and 8 in mill, and on and on. Got any clue as to which would be the best?

OK, guys. 99% of those are great for hogging out fenceposts and useless for tuning your nut.

There is one set of small jewelers' files that might be useful, but really, nothing for the 3 thinnest strings. For that you need a warding file, available from a jewelers' supply house or a luthier's supply.

Sears # on the set is 00906757000
