FWIW, I just used different feeler gauges of varying thickness with some sandpaper folded over them (220 then 400 grit) to deepen the slots on a bone nut instead of using files. Unprofessional, perhaps, but it worked perfectly fine for my instruments. The sandpaper seemed to remove bone less aggressively than a file. Made it easier to dial in the right depth and lessened the chance of me going too far. Just another option to consider.
