I pressed all the frets to make sure they were seated, particularly the high ones with the sharp ends. But, the sharpies just wouldn't stay seated, you could actually see them lifting as the pressure came off. Sad face.
I wasn't going to re-fret, at least not yet, so the only other option was to wick in some superglue and fix them down that way.
Glue wicked in, caul on the underside of neck, radius block with card layer on top of frets and clamped as firmly as I dared.
As an aside, the bridge ground wire hole runs from the pup rout intersecting with the bottom of the bridge post hole and then on into the control cavity. You can actually tap the bottom of the post bushing with a thin rod down the hole. If you ever need to drill a hole for a TOM bridge ground, that may be your shortest and easiest option.
Fret Levelling: black marks the high spots, red everywhere else.
