Week 9 Build

Accomplishments: This week I mainly focused on my frets and cleaned them up. First, we filed away on the sides of the fingerboard to removed metal from the sides. Then, using 150 frets recrowning file and went over them to shape them. Then, I went over it again with 300 to shape it smoothly. Again using the file I beveled the sides of the frets to curve them inward. With 1000 grit sandpaper, I finished smoothing everything out and getting rid of any sharp edges and with the steel wool, made it look shiny

Tools: File, fret recrowning file, 1000 grit sandpaper, steel wool

Learned: This week I learned how acetone can remove many things like sharpie if it gets on the fingerboard
