Here's an inexpensive solution for making your needle files comfortable to hold without investing in a variety of handles. This Comfort Grip Needle File Handle (Item #114849) is from @riogrande and I love that it has an adjustable collet, which allows me to quickly switch out my needle files while I work. It's $9.45, so it's an inexpensive tool that has made holding my files way easier! It also works on escapement files—the tang of the file should range between 2-3.25mm to fit in the collet. This handle is included in the 10% off promo code we have with @riogrande (through 10/2/19). Use code MTLSMITH5 to receive your discount.
