Filing Down Resistor

I'm building the Charlesworth Dynamics ghost trap. The resistor doesn't line up to the holes. At first I thought it was the wrong size. Charles mentioned that the GB1 version needs to be filed down. As I don't have a machine shop in my apartment and only a dremel. I was wondering what I could do? Thanks.

For anyone building a prop replica or doing basic modeling work I'd highly recommend at least a simple needle file set similar to this;

Prologic is right.
You could file it on a cement sidewalk if you wanted to.
