The amount of material removed per stroke while filing should be thinner than paper. So, as long as the teeth are at least a little proud of the file flattener bottom, the teeth should cut.

EDIT:...

Ideally, the SkiVisions Base Flattener & Structuring tool with the High Edge File Base Flattener bottom will provide you years of base high, edge high, base repair planing & base structuring...

Thanks guys! Now my take home is up to 25cents/hr!;)

Yeah, the 'polycrilic' coatings are crystal clear and I should have stated that fact. I like the tint regular polyurethane adds to blond wood, but wanted to avoid the VOCs. Plus the water based...

Exactly, especially on soft snow skis. For performance carvers, you'd have a different criteria where you'd need longer edge contact length to be dialed. Situational awareness is key for any task....

Good. It gets confusing, but it really is a simple process to perform.

One tweak you might consider is a shorter 'knob' across the base so your palm is laying over the file:

There are rare fox sightings and I was wondering that too. Looking at these animal track images, I haven't seen fox tracks. Coyotes are out all of the time.
