Use mine all the time. Have had it for 3 years! Best luthier tool out there by far. Darren also made me a fret leveling tool that matches. Thank you Darren
Would you consider making and selling one of these? And if so what would you charge? By the way thanks for sharing this tool. It's brilliant in my opinion.
Thank you so much for putting together this quick video Darren! Much appreciated! I'll be making mine shortly now. Thank you again for taking the time to share this! Just a follow up question: Do you just hammer those 5/16 steel dowels into that drilled cavity? Or do they need to be held in place by something like an epoxy?
seems to work very well, but I have no way to fabricate something like that. Drill two holes perfectly parallel? Need a drill press i think, at least for the precision I would want for a fret tool.
@@darrendrew1047 Hi Darren, I see your kit with the easy fret crowning tool is no longer available through Reverb, Ebay or Amazon. Is there anyway to purchase the kit through you direct? Thank you
@@sixstringelectricsoul The only one I have is a prototype one. It does the same job. I do not have any sanding pads that usually are part of the kit. I would sell you just the fret tool for $15 It's made out of flamed walnut. Call me at 510-825-7157 Thank you for your interest.
After re-crowning frets, You run it up and down the fretboard over sanding sponges in different grits and the frets get perfectly round and polished in a moment compared to doing it by hand.

I think I'll let you do the tool making, Darren! I love your tool
Woah there buddy! "I love your tool"? Isn't that what SHE said?
I’ve had mine in my toolbox for years, fastest crown job ever. Works best with jumbo/jumbo frets.
Love mine. Have used it often.
Got one- love it!

Well the hole should be just past the point of half round. Then you slide them in. I just use super glue, medium thickness.
@@darrendrew1047 thank you so much for the response!

Perhaps less of the attitude, and a little appreciation for a guy who is giving you great information free of charge.
