Thanks, folks.  Linda, I got the box on ebay.  Complete with a bible.  I think $10 or so...    Jon, the fret markers are 1/4 inch walnut dowels.  Just drill a 1/4 inch hole, wood glue on dowel and tap it in.   Carefully cut it off close to the fretboard (I use a jig- reciprocating saw), then sand it down- I use a random orbital sander.  Pretty quick and easy, but I am still capable of screwing it up.  The cross was woodburned and is not real straight.

Looks very sharp - what technique did you use on the fret marker and cross inlays?

I'd love to hear a rendition of "The Devil went down to Georgia" played on it! Nice work John.
