yeah, what he said. Another reason not to use a Dremel that he didn't mention is that the speed of the little beasties develops some pretty intense heat. Seems that might cause the frets to deform, and could cause some problems with the glue holding them in place.

Just use lots of tape, some gentle file action and lots of patience.
I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken. :o
