Re: A request of builders
John I think this is a good place for us to eat crow, tell of our fretting folly and share pitfalls to avoid. I learned that high humidity and tiny radiused frets will make you very humble in a short time. I had to walk away after the first two frets. Some heat lamps took care of the humidity and solved my earlier clumsiness and inability to start the press in straight without cocking to the side from the slots friction. John I’d also like to thank you personally for all the patience and adult supervision you’ve given me along the way in this bumpy rabbit hole of homemade mandolins..
