I'm using a similar flat file with a pointed edge for the sides and a triangular for the general filing. For the side filing though with the flat file, do you place the file flat against the fin, or at an angle (5 degrees? or greater as to not mess up the 5 degree angle you're trying to achieve with the triangular file?)

I'm using something almost exactly like the 3rd from the left.
