You got a very interesting tool for pressing the fret into the FB.
Did you make it by yourself?
Would you mind sharing some info about that tool?

Thanks a lot.

Thanks Jerry
I purchased the "custom fret press module" from this company. It comes with multiple radius inserts. I also bought the uni-jig intermediate system (I have not used that yet).

Then I made the frame for it with scraps. It works very well although I think I may redo the frame as I made it a little bit narrow for the wide end of the fretboard with the fret ends sticking out.
