What size fret crowning file do I need for this FS-1 kit? Large? I'm going to get an end file as well, the ends of the frets need so much work...very sharp edges.
Final "spiriting off" of the top. I think the end result is what I wanted. 3 weeks on this top.

Hahaha, ^ perfect!

Final coat of black paint and buffing to come, then polishing the neck and headstock.
When pick-ups arrive I'll start assembly. I'm going to upgrade the pots, I'm going to split the humbuckers anyway so I need a push-pull.
The frets need work, I think this will be quite a lengthy process.
A thing of beauty is a joy to behold!
