In the video when Andy is showing how to true out a cork grip, what is the name of the file or screen thing that he is using to bring the cork to round. Thank you for your help, Bryan Thompson.

Bryan,
It's just a cheap wood rasp type file that I got at Home Depot. One side is flat, and the other side is sort of oval, and it has two distinct types of "coarsness on each side. I think it was made by Nicholson files, but I cant say for sure.

Look at this page : [www.homedepot.com]

It's the second file from the left.

Hope that helps!

Ooops, maybe that link doesnt work. Go to www.homedepot.com and do a search for rasps. It should come up with a link to a page entitiled "LEARN ABOUT FILES AND RASPS" Its the second one from the left.
