I've since de-nibbed and applied a second coat of oil, the neck is hanging up, will apply one one coat tonight, then the last one tomorrow, I'll then leave it for a week before waxing.

What pickups have you ordered?
Went for Mojos this time
P90 underwound with Alinco 5
"Vintage" PAF with Alinco 4
Ordered on the first of May, so they'll either be at work waiting for me (I had a week off) or be dispatched any time now

I have an an issue that I don't know how to fix, advice appreciated - @WezV @FelineGuitars @impmann maybe?
The high e buzzes / drones when not fretted, it doesn't look to me that it's catching on the first fret (videos below) I bumped the action right up and it did the same. Only seems to start once the string is under proper tension. Not my usual brand of strings (tried the 'free' boomers I got with some Bareknuckle pickups), tried the spare e just in case, did the same.
I havent adjusted the nut yet, so doesn't look too low?

Good thought @sweepy just tried to wedge a very small alen key next to the roller, made no difference, unless there is something specific I need to try?
