    Your fret leveller would be even more totally awesome if you could mill it with a 12' radius

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    It would certainly need the 12' radius Farnsie, otherwise you might end up levelling too much off the centre of the fret...

    I wouldn't say it would 'certainly need' a radius. I get excellent results with a flat beam.

    I think you would have a lot more experience Pabs than our first time builder, hence the warning.

    I used to do it with a flat beam...
    Then I got a couple of the good quality radiused sanding beams and the result was like WOW!, and in about a quarter of the time.

    Couple this with a Katana leveling system and the results are perfecto....

    welcome and good luck, a tricky job even if you do have the right tools, but enjoy the journey
