In this video I'll make a set of file guides using HSS inserts. These will be different than other file guides as these are designed to rest on vise jaws and open with the vise jaws. File guides are commonly used for knife making but I'll mostly use mine for other things. Most of these parts were machined on my benchtop milling machine Precision Matthews PM30-MV
