Gauged Nut Slotting Files

Gauged the nut slotting files from a vendor different from the old, which was more rigid. But this seems more sturdy than the previous .. not bad.

they work great and are a must have for a good setup. you only need 5 for an electric guitar I use .046, .035, .024, .016, and .010

Good quality files that I find essential to do a good job. Customers happy then I'm happy !

They are expensive, but worth it! Work great and last forever. I used these most recently for my Tele-assembly project. Can't do this stuff without my Stew-Mac tools and parts.

Have used them to make 3 nuts. They are high priced, but are worth the extra $. One word of advice; GO SLOW and check depth OFTEN, they cut so fast.

Those work like a charm. The only reason I gave them 4 star is because I use the XL nickel regular-light strings, which is pretty much a standard, and the size of some files is 0.001" smaller than some of the strings. It's no big deal but it would've been nice to get a perfect fit.

I use these files every day and they do the job they are meant to do. Not fancy but they work fine.

Great tools, I use them all the time and get great results.

Cuts at the perfect speed so you dont cut to much. I ordered the lowest gauge as a start for my slots. This one was a little too thin for me but would work perfect for a 10 gauge string. All in all they do what they say :)

I have a full compliment of stew mac nut files. Both these style and the double sided files. I really like the handle on the double sided file. Makes things easier. However, these work just fine. I cringe whenever I see people trying filed feeler gauges and torchtip cleaners instead of real nut files.
