I always use stones and needle files to shape these. Use a magnifying glass or lamp, to get a good look, and a small vise to hold it while you work on it.
Good advice^^^

Getting a good eye on what you are doing and using a needle file and light stone to polish if necessary as well. A vise make it much easier to work by keeping the part good and steady.

I am not saying you can't be successful with a dremel and the right abrasive attachment, but it is too easy to make a mistake with one a needle file has a good shape to begin with for your project.

Slow and easy gets my vote!
