If I read the original post correctly, it was the fall board / name board strip / key cover / what ever! In any case, filing down the sharps to eliminate the problem of sharps hitting a warped fall board, is in league with, shimming a warped key frame with business cards...as apposed to sanding the frame, and seating it properly. In my humble opinion!
