Hey Chris I hope that you are doing great.
Cool offering and I watched the video and have a question or two. Also so that's what you look like
1). First for rolled edges and thanks for bringing this up it rarely has been mentioned on the OLF over the years and rolled edges are an issue, a common issue on older, Kalamazoo Gibsons. I see how the transition from one radius to another will add pressure to the fret ends on a rolled edge but in Gibson land a few degrees of difference is not enough to deal with some of the rolled edges which can be over 10 degrees different than in the middle of the board. With all this said your cool system will work in my world for Gibson rolled edges if I use an over radiused caul and leave a gap in the middle. Now we do this now with our custom caul sets and it works great, pressure is not required in the middle of the fret if the slot has been properly prepared and the slot and wire are a good fit. For the rest of my question to make sense you have read number 2 next:
2). Any plans to offer this as an augmentation to Stew-Mac's Jaws II fret press system. That's what we and many others in the repair world use to press loose frets down and glue them on existing guitars and for refrets of existing guitars? If so what is the ETA?
Lastly and more a commiseration than anything else. We've flirted for years with a continuously variable fret press caul. I suspect that you have too and that's why I'm bringing this up. We have some ideas and Dave has made some prototypes but we could not make it work reliably. I've had a vision of a continuously variable fret press caul that simply conforms to the radius of what it's being pressed into and there is a fluid component to my idea much like hydraulics and the incompressibility of liquid. Might be fun to have a conversation with you and Dave Collins on this subject I see some real genius in what you have done here. Good going!
