00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:11,340
Welcome to the to filing

2
00:00:11,340 --> 00:00:13,340
and using of files 

3
00:00:13,340 --> 00:00:16,020
and finishing off

4
00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:19,340
and tidying up bits of metal.

5
00:00:19,340 --> 00:00:23,120
What we've got, we've got some

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,500
files of different shapes. 

7
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:28,940
They some sort of really coarse

8
00:00:28,940 --> 00:00:30,200
start off with coarse 

9
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,320
and then they get finer

10
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:35,660
in abrasiveness. 

11
00:00:35,660 --> 00:00:39,340
That is, you get different shapes.

12
00:00:39,340 --> 00:00:43,000
This is a half round, triangular,

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,680
round file and a flat file.

14
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,960
And there that's sort of general ones

15
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,420
that we would use

16
00:00:53,420 --> 00:00:57,100
for most shapes of our work.

17
00:00:57,100 --> 00:01:00,760
The next step after using files

18
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,320
then we use Emery sticks.

19
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:06,840
So these are different

20
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,640
shaped sort of bits of wood

21
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,420
that are covered in Emery paper,

22
00:01:14,420 --> 00:01:19,480
and some are fine and some are coarse.

23
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,220
The higher the number,

24
00:01:22,220 --> 00:01:26,440
the finer the abrasiveness is.

25
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,240
So these are twelve hundred

26
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,760
and that they're quite

27
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,300
they're sort of very fine.

28
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:39,640
And then this one's at 240 and

29
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,500
it's quite a course one.

30
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:43,200
OK. 

31
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,140
So we're going to 

32
00:01:45,140 --> 00:01:46,620
look at our little pieces 

33
00:01:46,620 --> 00:01:48,300
that we've cut up. 

34
00:01:48,300 --> 00:01:50,080
And 

35
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,720
at the edge of the heart, we've got

36
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,720
the marks from the saw blades.

37
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,980
And so we need generally

38
00:02:00,980 --> 00:02:03,180
we want to take those out because they're 

39
00:02:03,180 --> 00:02:06,360
they're not very nice to look at

40
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,020
and they're a bit uneven. 

41
00:02:08,020 --> 00:02:11,880
So we can use a sort of half round file,

42
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,660
which is great to 

43
00:02:13,660 --> 00:02:15,380
just get into the 

44
00:02:15,380 --> 00:02:17,320
the curve of the heart 

45
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,080
and don't be afraid 

46
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,280
to use a big file because

47
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,400
they're a lot easier to use

48
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:29,460
for sort of general taking

49
00:02:29,460 --> 00:02:30,680
metal away. 

50
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,240
And so we've used the curved bits

51
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,360
to get into the curve of the heart

52
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,220
and then the top of the heart

53
00:02:38,220 --> 00:02:41,680
is rounded so we can use the

54
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,860
flat 

55
00:02:43,860 --> 00:02:46,760
part of the file. 

56
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,960
And we're again just

57
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,160
pushing away with the file 

58
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,000
because the files 

59
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,760
work cut better when it's pushing away

60
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,960
and 

61
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:03,960
you can soon get a nice uniformed edge.

62
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,660
It's quite a fine file this one 

63
00:03:09,660 --> 00:03:12,020
now to get into these little

64
00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:14,940
this little corner 

65
00:03:14,940 --> 00:03:15,980
is quite difficult, 

66
00:03:15,980 --> 00:03:17,040
and some of these files 

67
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,180
are just a little bit too big.

68
00:03:20,180 --> 00:03:21,660
But what we've got here 

69
00:03:21,660 --> 00:03:25,860
are some needle files, and these are just

70
00:03:25,860 --> 00:03:28,020
tiny versions of those 

71
00:03:28,020 --> 00:03:29,720
that come in lots of different shapes. 

72
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,320
So there that's around file,

73
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,160
that's half round. 

74
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,420
So it's a miniature version of that one.

75
00:03:38,420 --> 00:03:40,560
This is a flat file. 

76
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,680
So they are it's

77
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:44,480
sort of miniature versions, 

78
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:45,160
and they're great 

79
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,960
for sort of getting into small corners.

80
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,220
So we'll we'll use this 

81
00:03:50,220 --> 00:03:53,760
a little half round file and that gets

82
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,020
you can get right into the 

83
00:03:56,020 --> 00:03:58,280
corner of the heart where the heart

84
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,260
becomes like a V-shaped. And

85
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:10,340
with these little  needle files,  you can go backwards and forwards, 

86
00:04:10,340 --> 00:04:12,140
but it's always a good habit 

87
00:04:12,140 --> 00:04:14,900
to get into just to 

88
00:04:14,900 --> 00:04:16,520
always push with the file 

89
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,560
if you can control it 

90
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,700
a bit better on the push. 

91
00:04:20,700 --> 00:04:21,880
And 

92
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,720
but once you've got 

93
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,160
particularly with the edge, 

94
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,060
once you've got it fairly neatly

95
00:04:29,060 --> 00:04:32,440
done all the sort of saw marks taken out,

96
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,600
then you can move to the Emery sticks

97
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,260
and we'll have a course 

98
00:04:37,260 --> 00:04:40,440
one this one's a round one. 

99
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:45,940
And what basically is happening

100
00:04:45,940 --> 00:04:48,820
is you're replacing big marks

101
00:04:48,820 --> 00:04:50,220
with smaller marks 

102
00:04:50,220 --> 00:04:54,000
then as the the little file

103
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,120
scratches get smaller and smaller,

104
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,980
they become more reflective. 

105
00:04:57,980 --> 00:04:59,600
So if you looked 

106
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:00,720
through a highly polished 

107
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,940
piece of metal through a microscope, 

108
00:05:02,940 --> 00:05:07,600
you'd see that we've made up a myriad of little scratches.

109
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:14,480
Now, a great tool to have for the edges

110
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,540
is a burnisher, 

111
00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:20,480
and a burnisher a polished steel bar.

112
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,120
And it's very tough

113
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,940
and it's great for getting into corners

114
00:05:25,940 --> 00:05:27,900
and by just rubbing 

115
00:05:27,900 --> 00:05:30,540
the surface over the edge. 

116
00:05:30,540 --> 00:05:34,100
You can build up a really bright shine.

117
00:05:34,100 --> 00:05:34,940
I mean, we can spend 

118
00:05:34,940 --> 00:05:36,480
a lot longer on these 

119
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,440
just getting all of the big marks out.

120
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,660
You can see that really gives

121
00:05:41,660 --> 00:05:43,760
a reflective finish, 

122
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,060
and the burnisher isn't abrasive

123
00:05:46,060 --> 00:05:50,480
because it's a very tough steel bar.

124
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,280
It smooths down the metal

125
00:05:53,280 --> 00:05:55,760
and burnishes the surface,

126
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,660
so it gives you a nice, smooth,

127
00:05:58,660 --> 00:06:00,380
reflective surface. 

128
00:06:00,380 --> 00:06:01,280
And because it's got to 

129
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:03,040
sort of graduated point 

130
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,380
and it's curbed because you can

131
00:06:06,380 --> 00:06:08,880
follow it around the curve 

132
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,160
and build up a shine, 

133
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,820
and that's great for the edges.

134
00:06:14,820 --> 00:06:18,500
Now, for the surface,

135
00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:19,340
it's a bit different 

136
00:06:19,340 --> 00:06:23,960
because if we went at it with these

137
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,880
big files, we'd end up 

138
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,560
with very big scratches 

139
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,600
and that might take us longer

140
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,320
and we'd lose a lot of metal. 

141
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,100
So what we're going to do 

142
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:37,160
is start with the Emery sticks first

143
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,120
and they're course, 

144
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:40,520
but they're not as coarse 

145
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,060
as the files and

146
00:06:43,060 --> 00:06:44,400
and this is going to do 

147
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,300
the surface piece of metal

148
00:06:47,300 --> 00:06:49,680
and it's a bit we've textured

149
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,440
And the other side has got a bit 

150
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,760
bruised from the metal plate, 

151
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,960
but we will use the Emery sticks

152
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,560
and again, we'll start 

153
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,420
with the course one. 

154
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:02,000
And with this, 

155
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,780
you can go backwards and forwards. 

156
00:07:08,840 --> 00:07:09,920
And you can see that 

157
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,460
it's starting to get brighter,

158
00:07:13,460 --> 00:07:15,760
but we are putting scratches in,

159
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,540
but they're sort of uniform scratches.

160
00:07:19,540 --> 00:07:22,300
And you can turn the file, 

161
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,400
the Emery stick over 

162
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,520
and you can use it in different ways

163
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,320
because they get 

164
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,440
they get worn out in places.

165
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,640
We'll keep going,

166
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:34,680
and if you sort of

167
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,860
keep changing direction, 

168
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:39,900
it helps to stop 

169
00:07:39,900 --> 00:07:43,060
you digging out any deep grooves

170
00:07:43,060 --> 00:07:45,020
by going in the same direction 

171
00:07:45,020 --> 00:07:48,140
all the time. We've got it

172
00:07:48,140 --> 00:07:50,260
quite, it's still scratched,

173
00:07:50,260 --> 00:07:52,880
but we've got rid of most of the hammer

174
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,380
marks and the marks of the

175
00:07:55,380 --> 00:07:57,500
when we were texturing. 

176
00:07:57,500 --> 00:07:58,980
So after that 

177
00:07:58,980 --> 00:08:01,660
we'll just make sure there's no dust and

178
00:08:01,660 --> 00:08:02,880
coarse grit on there, 

179
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,480
then we can move to a finer one.

180
00:08:05,500 --> 00:08:08,340
So this is a twelve hundred one 

181
00:08:08,340 --> 00:08:11,920
and then start again.

182
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,420
And what we're doing is replacing

183
00:08:14,420 --> 00:08:17,300
those coarse scratches

184
00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:18,740
with finer scratches, 

185
00:08:18,740 --> 00:08:20,840
but because they're getting finer. 

186
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,580
You can start to see that it's 

187
00:08:22,580 --> 00:08:25,580
starting to build up a nice shine.

188
00:08:25,580 --> 00:08:27,680
It's not quite reflective, but 

189
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,100
it's it's getting there.

190
00:08:31,100 --> 00:08:33,960
And it's if you design idea is that it's

191
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,780
just sort of brushed finish, 

192
00:08:35,780 --> 00:08:38,120
then you could perhaps 

193
00:08:40,940 --> 00:08:44,080
stop halfway through and

194
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,560
before it becomes really highly polished,

195
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:51,100
you know, it's starting to build up

196
00:08:51,100 --> 00:08:53,300
to a nice shine. 

197
00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:55,940
But we could continue 

198
00:08:55,940 --> 00:08:56,660
sort of rubbing, 

199
00:08:56,660 --> 00:08:58,640
but it would take quite a time 

200
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,200
to get that really highly polished.

201
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,700
But I think the best thing to do is

202
00:09:03,700 --> 00:09:06,580
is to look at the next video

203
00:09:06,580 --> 00:09:08,500
of using the polishing machine.
