    You know... I can't remember. When the fretboard is a lot wider, I use a band saw. I might have well just used a chisel, then raps n file.

    After gluing your fretboard on, did you have to trim the sides with saw, or file? The fretboard looks much wider than the neck. I usually fret the fretboard before gluing it onto the neck. Just my preference.
