I have a cheap on of those guides that I got from Amazon. It's OK. I'm sure there are better versions out there. But I just do it free hand. My bevel isn't perfectly flat. It's slightly rounded, but I can shave arm hairs with them when I finish. I usually do course (325), fine (1000-1200), and then strop. The stropping really makes a difference.
