Fret end file mount

[Christophe Mineau]

In the luthier tool category, here is my tool for filing the end of frets on a fretboard :

This is a pretty classical design, it uses a standard flat sharpening file.

The groove is cut on the table saw.
The screw holes are tapped directly in the wood.
The woods comes from a scrap piece of furniture and the bottom is varnished, which happens to be more slippy.
