I know there was a link to a book on filing around here somewhere but I have lost the link. Anyway, I have been experimenting with draw filing. But on my 12" mill file, the teeth are made to cut on the push if I hold the handle in of the file in my right hand. So I could turn it around but somehow that sounds backwards. Thoughts?

To properly draw file, the tang goes in the right hand and you push. Put it in the left hand to pull.
