I like side markers on my classical guitars. I don't have the training to navigate the entire fingerboard without them. I don't want too many of them, though, so just the 5th, 7th, and 10th fret get them.

The end of the fretwire is cut to allow it to overlap the fingerboard binding.

On this build I wanted to try epoxying the frets in place. The fingerboard face is first coated with wax, then the fret slots are filled with resin..

The frets are placed into the slots and clamped down.

As the fingerboard face was waxed the resin is easy to remove. The frets require only the basic dressing and we are good to go.
