Nice stuff Barge looks choice ez (sorry, I had to do it!!)
To get a buttload of pics up at once, create an album with Imgur and embed the whole thing.
Hey thanks for the kind words @Ben, Crundes,Tony,Gav,Pest. I really appreciate the feedback:-)
I came across this vid a while back while trawling the web for fretting info and just HAD to save it.
Watch this guy as he effortlessly installs a fret using the vice grip method. He makes it look far too easy:P

Silly way to install frets, especially since he has nothing to hold the caul in place and also the fact that he didnt not use anything to protect the neck from the pressure (yes I know he used a bit of metal for the "neck" but a newbie would not think to do that.)
