Guess I need to start experimenting with raker height then measure it when I get the feel I like, then learn to eyeball it from there. Picked up an Oregon gauge on the way home today and it will take the rakers even lower than they are now.

I to have this file guide and incorporate it on my FG2. Does it matter that when you file down the raker it takes the original beveled or tapered edge that was on it and makes it flat/squared off?

Most recommend rounding the front of the raker. That's what i do.
