    Not to put the D-man on the spot, but I'll bet I'm not alone when I say that he's got quite a few more potential sticky-threads on the care & feeding of our wood & steel weaponry up those flannel sleeves of his...:

    Nice work and the tips I can use.
    I recently built a fret jig so I could level the fretboard under tension similar
    to the one in a supply catalogue.
    I've done fretboards without tension and done well but this jig seems to be a bit more precise and at 65 my eyes aren't quite what they used to be
