Pretty much useless apart from an interesting read, I would hope for most people here, if you are building guitars and practicing lutherie it's a given, however it's the newest one in the series.

I was also asked any chance of doing sharpening of tools, so maybe at some stage I will include that

I have a tool sharpening sideline business, so sharpen router bits,mill bit's, chisels, knives,drills, screwdrivers scissors and so forth.

There are also links in this one for how to defret a guitar, how to fix sharp fret ends and how to fret level.

Again, I would not expect anyone here to learn anything from this.

For those that may be interested in getting into repairs,

I charge 310 for a refret this includes gst and finished setup with Ernie ball strings.

The demand is huge, yesterday I had two refrets come in and I am constantly turning work away, anyone that is building guitars is instantly capable of taking this sort of work on IMO.
