Howdy
i just got myself a skate banana and was wondering if sharpening the magnetraction edges will cause any issues as the file may not "bite" the curvey edges.
Cheers

well done for posting in the uk section  
google "magnetraction edge tool" (or such) - there's smaller edging tools which work better with the magnetraction waves, 'cos normal edge-tools are long enough to not ride down the dips. |

| come on m8, it helps us all in the long run - say someone has a magnetraction board and has the same concern as you about sharpening it. Surely it would make sense for them to check the equipment section for advice than UK? |

The smaller edge tools work better... but you really don't need to worry too much about tuning a magnetraction board as the nature of the 'waves' means the board will bite even with blunt edges
Had my TRS for 2 seasons and never sharpened it.... |
