Do they make stones for dressing bars or just files?

Do you think a stone would grind better and last longer? Did this with a big file but seemed to wear it out fast. New to dressing bars. I’ve put a log of hours on this bar and never touched it

That doesn't look too bad as long as it is square. I use a sanding disc on a slowed-down table saw to dress and square the tops. Yes, the hardened edge is tough on files.

Polished it up with the da sander and found this crack. Hopefully it doesn’t get worse

You have a controller inline on your power cord? What kind of sanding disk do you put on it?

Vertical belt sanders do it quick and square.

I don’t have a whole lots space right now

I need to get one of those, not so much for bars, but they do seem handy for that and other things. For my light bar dressing needs I just use a file and try and hold it square.
