Tools4Boards SWITCH CUT Ski Snowboard Side Edge File Guide Multi Sharpening Tool

Description

Tools4Boards Switch Cut:
Take down just enough sidewall to expose more metal edge for filing, then simply rotate tool 180º to sharpen and hone the side edge at either 2° or 3°. 0° angle bar surface provides convenient fence to sharpen plexi scrapers. To switch between 2° and 3° simply detach angle bar from wear plate, rotate 180º then re-attach, no need for multiple fixed angle guides. Trash the expensive carbide cutters that tear away too much sidewall compromising structural integrity or chatter down the length of your ski or snowboard edge causing impossible to remove "washboard". The 7° angle bar perfectly positions a file to readily trim sidewall missing the metal edge typically set at 2° or 3°. Place the coarse side of a Tools4Boards Combi-Cut or panzer file (sold separately) on the outwardly facing 7° angle bar surface and draw the tool down the sidewall using light pressure. Multiple file teeth in contact with the sidewall prevent the file blade from digging in. Minimizing sidewall removal maintains necessary support for the metal edge and greatly extends ski or snowboard life. To switch from sidewall trimmer to plexi scraper sharpener, simply detach angle bar from wear plate, rotate 180º then re-attach so the 0° surface is outwardly facing. Place a sheet of 180 grit sandpaper (sold separately) on a flat surface underneath wear plate and slide plexi scraper back and forth using 0° surface as a fence.
