Files

Files are the core of the Expert By Facom woodworking offer. Use them to trim joints, ease sharp edges, refine curves, enlarge holes and tidy up cut profiles. They are also handy for fitting hinges, adjusting door and frame details, and finishing small components where power tools would be too aggressive.

Choose the file shape according to the work: flat files for faces and edges, round files for holes and tight internal curves, and half-round files where you need a mix of both.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right file for woodworking?

Start with the job. Use a coarser cut for fast shaping and material removal, then move to a finer cut for a smoother finish. Match the profile to the surface: flat for straight edges, round for holes and tight curves, half-round for general shaping.

How should I use a file on timber to get a clean finish?

Secure the workpiece firmly, then use steady, even strokes in the cutting direction, applying light pressure. Work along the shape rather than forcing the file, and check your progress often. Clear dust from the teeth regularly to keep the file cutting efficiently.
