About Swiss Pattern Precision Files . . .
Manufactured to precise production standards, using a combination of machine cutting and hand craftsmanship to produce the most accurate, best cutting and longest-lasting files in the world. They are made of the finest heat-tempered, chrome alloy steel and have the right feel, action and balance desired by all true craftsmen. Swiss Pattern Precision Files deliver superior performance on all metals. Made in Italy. Simply the best you can buy.
File selection cannot be reduced to a formula or table but is based to a great degree on experience. However, the chart below gives you a great starting point for file selection.

Keep in mind, there is more to file selection than shape alone. Selecting the correct cut to use is determined by the type of the metal you’re working on, as well as the amount of material to be removed and your desired finish. For example, rapid removal of stock often indicates a cut 00, while working on narrow surfaces would suggest a cut 2 and a fine cut such as cut 4 or cut 6 would be used for final finishing operations.

Types of Files

Swiss Pattern Precision Files: The original Swiss files made in hundreds of shapes and sizes.

Swiss Needle Files: A group of files of various cross-sections with a knurled, round handle. Knurling gives the file a positive, non-slip grip for precision filing.

Escapement Files: Also called small Square Handled Needle Files. A group of files of various cross-sectioned shapes with a length of cut varying from 3/4" to 2-1/2", with square handles.

Rifflers: Originally used and hand forged by die sinkers, die makers, silversmiths, etc., in shapes and cross-sections appropriate to their work. Teeth are cut on small areas on each end and can have a variety of shapes. A long middle portion serves as the handle.

Another flop from Marvel Star Wars
Format: Paperback
Potentially one of the worst comics since the marvel acquisition - the plot is dull and confusing, the dialogue is terrible, and the art is extremely hit or miss. I was really looking forward to this series before it came out, and for any Star Wars fans, you will likely be disappointed like I was.

Not what I wanyed
Format: Paperback
I have nothing against this comic. The simple fact of the matter is that I ordered this by mistake and when I returned it for a refund, Amazon has refused to give me a refund so I'm mostly mad about that. Th comic overall seemed fine, again I have nothing against it and hardly know what it's even about. The art is a bit medicore however, nothing special or particularly ugly, just kinda meh. That's all I really got to say about it.

Thrilling Battles, Exciting Storyline & Cinema Quality Artwork
Format: Kindle
Wow! What a series. I had several friends recommended the Vader comic and they were right. It's an exceptional undertaking. Cinema quality artwork and an excellent storyline worthy of a novel. I finally picked up this Vader Down edition to find out what happened in between the first main Vader series. It does not disappoint. Vader is trapped on a world while searching for Like Skywalker and surrounded by rebel forces. This being Vader, a Dark Lord of the Sith, poses no problem. It features one of the best lines, "I am surrounded by fear. And dead men." He takes out three entire squads of rebel troops before confronting an Imperial ambush. Dr. Alpha and her murderous droids face off against Han Solo. Good vs bad Wookie fights and droid fights also add to the fray. A must read for Star Wars fans. Thrilling storyline and gorgeous artwork (I love how the characters look like the actors) make this a worthy addition to your comic collection. Magnificent.

Excellent, musst-read crossover story!
Format: Paperback
Jason Aaron is hands-down one of my favorite comic book writers. The characters in his Star Wars books in particular 'sound' exactly like they do on screen, which is a tough thing to pull off for such a well-loved universe. This series is extremely well put together with beautiful art and coloring. I simply couldn't be happier with the direction that Marvel is taking. The blend of 'familiar', while keeping things unique and fresh is really well done. I also love how Aaron enhances little details from the movies that I never really stopped to think about before, providing satisfying glimpses into the stories we know and love that fit beautifully into canon. This graphic novel in particular tells a fantastic story about Darth Vader's relentless pursuit to figure out who it was that destroyed the Death Star. Seeing the growth of Luke as a character in these early days is also fascinating. Definitely a must-read addition to the Star Wars canon!
