Just had this advice back from Stewmac;
The rule of thumb is to match the gauge or use up to .003" bigger. You can also use .001" smaller and wiggle the file side to side to make the slot slightly bigger. You might consider:
#0821 0.010" for your 10
#0823 0.013" for your 13
#0827 0.016 OR #0828 0.020" for your 17
#0830 0.028" for your 26
#0832 0.035" for your 36
#5313 0.046" for your 46
I'm always impressed with how they come back with a response within 24 hours. In stark contrast with Allparts UK. I recently received a neck from them; it had a deep vintage amber stain when i wanted a natural finish. The website never mentioned this finish and whilst commenting on the excellent quality of the neck I asked if all their finished necks were like this. Suprise, suprise, nearly 2 weeks later, no reply. I really like their necks but am getting fed up with the customer service.
Anyway, rant over, time to order some files.
Thanks for all the advice guys.
