Fret tool
Homemade handle with radius and self-stick wet&dry abrasive pads for polishing. These also work on the Dual-grit diamond fret files. Maybe the best way to re-crown frets. The 300-grit seems a bit much so I also use end of the diamond file for some paper tab polishing after the 150 grit has shaped the crown.
