It's a long-shot, but do you still have that Nordic 8 ?

Indeed.
It is precisely why I choose the recto for my uses.
Posted a clip just for you, man.
Yeah, I'll order the pieces and try it out first, we'll see if it holds up
I'm not sure if I can get my hands on anything amazing, it seems the largest I could go would be 1.3mm and hope that it shows up on the front and sides, I could use a small saw or chisel to make it fit right?
Thank you Flo!
Using a smaller piece to correct uneven fretting seems about fine to me! Now I can save money on a fret hammer
Just out of curiousity, do you think inlaying a piece of pearl into the side to count as a side marker/fret marker would work?
Hiya Flo, I understand you are in germany and probably asleep right now, but i'd like to ask about the fret pressing. Since I haven't the resource for a plastic hammer, I've thought of using the vice at my school's woodshop (there are vices on every table), and well, they're a bit bigger than the one you had pictured in my thread. I was wondering if it was possible to just press the whole fret in at once, using a piece of maple to cushion the fret so it isn't dented by the vice, would be a good idea. Since the walnut neck will be carved afterward, I don't think letting it touch the vice will hurt, if at all. Looking forward to your response!

So viele selbstgemachte gitarren, ich kanns nicht verstehen
Neightbours! Woooow so near ehem.. so nah 
I'm getting there. I'm at the point where I have to make some mock-ups of the neck. Overall, it will be something like the Saul Koll RE-7F, but as a solidbody and with straighter string path behind the bridge.
Forgot to say that I love the 8-string. How does it sit? Do you play standing or sitting? -
