Hi everyone.

I just added a new tutorial to the Tutorials section on making "halo" fret position markers / side dots.

I like that a lot. I think I'll steal your method.

I like it too! Just curious, any reason to leave it 1/4" or so high when cutting it off other than being cautious of fretboard?

It was definitely a function of that, but I also noticed that the plastic rod started to, "fray." It wasn't really melting, it was almost like it was disintegrating just a tad. I just wanted to play it safe. Your mileage may certainly vary!

This inspired me to try out the halo markers. I bought some sterling beads that are used in jewelry making. I like them!
