Would RecommendI needed to join together an N scale stockcar I had cut a section out of. I was able to smooth out the cut with this file for a perfect joint. This was the specific reason I bought the 12" file

It works just like a real file; I used it to remove metal I would have rather milled out - but I don't have a mill.
