I see some discussion today about edge deburring, and thought I'd
share a method I learned from another 10 builder (Nick Gautier) a
couple of miles from me. This technique has cut my edge deburring
time from 15-20 minutes per large skin down to 2-3 minutes and it is
unbelievably simple:
Take a curved tooth file (with the handle removed) and run it
lengthwise flat to the edge of the skin. On the return trip, run the
file lengthwise at a 45 degree angle to the top side of the edge and
make a final pass with the file lengthwise at a 45 degree angle to
the bottom side of the edge.
The result is an edge that is far smoother than anything I've been
able to accomplish with my double edge deburring tool... or any other
method I've fumbled around with.

Yes, but always wear a leather glove. If you slip off the edge, the result is a nice long cut.

The best advice on the deburring of edge of skins came to me from a seasoned vet. He took a 6" stainless steel machinist ruler used as a knife and passed over the edge at about a 45º angle. Two passes in each direction ( ten seconds max) and the edge was deburred and burnished to a smooth finish. I use it every time now.
