If you have a table saw and a file, you can just cut a slot in a piece of wood at 35° and glue the file in the slot. Then, you just run the file down until they're all the same and all at the edge of the fretboard.

Or you can just buy said contraption for a few dollars at like aliexpress.com. You should also be able to get it in 45°, depending on your preferences.

How'd you level 'em?

With sandpaper glued to a straight edged long level

Life will be better with the 'net back on!

And, that's a good way to level frets. I've actually got a special tool for it, well several, but I no longer do my own luthier work. I can do all the work, I just don't want to. I also have too many guitars. Doing all the work would take up my time, even if it's just general inspections and cleanings.

But, I can even repair an acoustic top that has been punched in from someone stepping on it. There will be some sign that it was repaired, but I can fix it. I can fix a broken headstock easily enough, even if I have to make a jig to route a section out for replacement.

So the money is in my bank now, but wouldn't you know, the bank servers are down and unable to access and transactions are impossible. What timing!

I don't need anything fancy. Just want it to stop chewing up my left hand index finger
