This is a very inspiring video. Great sounding instrument, too.

Kieth, Dan is a better builder than me- but one thing I have one with zero frets is to use a jumbo fret for the zero and the rest smaller.   The disadvantage I have seen with zero frets is I have needed to use string guides or the strings have not stayed in place on the nut/zero fret.

Dan, thanks for doing the video, and it gives me an idea of how 0-fret is done.

Thanks, Dan.

Thanks guys.  John, all of the frets are the same size (Medium Nickel-Silver).

Very good. Speak for yourself, Jim. I can still screw up the frets. But I did learn something here. Starter Wes? I just figured out one of my fret mistakes! Maybe I should stay with fretless in the future.

Daniel, did you use a bigger fret for the zero fret?

So easy even us old farts can do it!
