Accomplishments: This week I finished sanding my fingerboard to a 2000 grit and then installed all of my frets into my fingerboard. We cleaned the frets, bent them into a curve, and then cut and pressed them in.
Tools: The tools I used this week were sandpaper, flush clippers, drill press with a fret installer attached to the end, fret bender, and acetone for cleaning.
What I learned: This week I learned that we have to bend our fret wire to a curve so that when we press them into our already curved (to a 12 inch radius) fingerboard they press in nicely and don’t come up on the ends.
