I designed these to fit everyone's favourite American luthiers tool supplier's gauged slotting files, I'm sure they will fit others. Use a single handle per file or use both sides. Its 3d printed you can make as many as you like for the same effort as 1.

There is a wide slot and a narrow slot so choose the side that works best.

Critical - Print with either  0.1mm layers with variable layer height that will allow a mm 0.1mm layer, this is critical as one side has a 0.1mm step and any more it too deep for 0.010mm files

In addition to the 2 halves you will need 3 off each

  • M3 x 6 (8 also works) Button Head Machine screw
  • M3 Nut 

There is an optional shim piece that will fit the wider groove and help grip the thinnest files you have.
