Fret work on the hand of doom

Fret work... my 24 hole board.


I tried to use the dremel to trim the fret ends but they get hot, then it was hard to get it nice and flat. I ended up using my end nippers to cut the tang. I put some super glue on the mdf work bench and used a 5/64" bit to cut a groove, then stick the fret in the groove and use the file to clean up the end.


I pressed the frets in with a little titebond in the slots. Then I used some Stew Mac Radius blocks to clamp it up while the glue dries. Not entirely necessary but comforting. Finished fretting. Ends trimmed up.
