Great work and really appreciate you sharing! Curious though, does your back hurt after all this? it seems that it'd be a bit more ergonomic if you were able to raise your bench or vice up.
Thanks for commenting, it's not too bad as I'm not doing it all day long, however the awkward positions are more for the benefit of the camera - with my limited equipment there are few places where I can mount it and get a good view of the work, I do sit and and do inlays from time to time, I also tend to move the work piece around instead of leaning over to attack it from other angles but wanted to make sure it remained in shot.
maybe a bit quicker but not a lot on it I reckon, with complex shapes the time consuming part is getting the edges right. Also my dremel base is too big and will foul the fretboard, I do normally use it for big fretboard inlays though.

Wouldn’t it be easier to get the bulk out with a Dremmel and flat router base? Thanks for the vid.

Any specific reason for chosing epoxy over superglue?
Epoxy is gap filling, that’s why I’m concerned about colouring it close to that of the wood
Hey, I know this this guy😎
