Hunh!   Cocktail Stick Frets!   They look good.  I once did bobby pin fret with super glue.  I later learned that I should have used gel super glue.

Thanks all for your comments

Uncle John the bolt is the cheapest softest Chinese made one I could find! Small Hacksaw cut through it in minutes.

The Frets are Cocktail sticks superglued into a sawn groove widened with a triangular needle file.

Nice build!

Very nice look to it.  New box, but old timey looking.   Man, nice pickup and controls.     Good looking fret dressing - better than mine.  

I look at that bolt saddle and think, "Hmm, I wonder how he cut or ground down the head.  I suspect that was not the most fun part of the build,'
