Looks good Frank,sorry about the fret but lots of times it will give no problem.I would drop some supper glue it it and then shoot it.

do not sand the fret anymore...it is caused from that area being weaker than the wood on both sides.  sanding will only weaken the area more.  it looks like a pretty solid bow.  i am planning on trying a pyramid bow for a buddy of mine in the near future.  thanks for the pictorial!

thanks everybody!  -  a minute after unbracing, the bow goes back from 1/2" of follow to 1/2" of reflex, i guess there is no problem with that one fret!

the maple here has these shades in the wood running perpendicular to the grain, don't know what that is named in english; the fret follows exactly on of these shades!
