get a file guide or go ask a shop to do it. why do you want that(if you are doing it to your park skis?)

where do you ski? i have my seths at 2 degrees base and 1 degree side, and that has worked well for me. they still carve well on groomers, but arent constantly hooking up in choppier terrain.

you need a guide that would cost like 25 for a set of 3 diffrent degrees...or just take them to a shop with a ceremic tuneing machine and ask for your needed degrees...(go to a race shop)

I have seen a guide that will tune both base and side edges, but I don't remember who makes it. You may want to check out Sun Valley Tools. I thought Seths came with a 1 degree base and 2 degree side, but I could be wrong...make em how you want though. A 2 degree base would be less grabby in the chop.

the degrees doesnt matter. the bigger the degree the longer it takes to get on edge. i  haave been using a 2 my whole life and its perfectly fine and then us a .75 for the base. get the  beast base bevel its the best.
