StewMac tech advisors specify this set of 3 files to match Soprano Ukulele string gauges (one file each in the following cutting widths: 0.020", 0.028", and 0.032").
Match the file to the string gauge. Choose a file of the same size as the string, or no more than a few thousandths wider. By rocking the file side to side, you can widen the slot to fit a slightly wider string.
