just back from the shed with some fretwork done on these two now.
I like to use a little glue in the slots as I believe it helps fill any tiny voids and promotes vibration from the strings.
Not sure if it makes much difference in reality but I still like to do it.
Leaving the necks overnight to settle now before filing fret ends , then onto adding neck heels and shaping the necks.
Using the drill press and fret caul makes this job pretty easy and gives very consistent results. Looking down the neck against the light I don't see any high/low spots at all. They will still need an accurate levelling and polish anyway though.
Looking forward to the next installment

that's correct - I do have a cove cutter but it cuts at 1/4" rather than the tighter 6mm for these rods.
thanks for the tip, Worth knowing.
the rest of the break angke will go onto the heel of the neck.
Like your table saw sled, is that a narrowish blade or is it just my eyes. I might use mine more if I could find a slimmer blade.
