My Martin OM is in need of new frets so I'm thinking about using the opportunity to learn this skill. I'm comfortable with finishing work on frets but never have I attempted a full re-fret so I'm excited to give it a go. I only plan on doing this for my own guitar(s) so we're talking about, what, 1-2 times every five years? So, my questions are..

1.) For someone like me what tools am I going to need, at a minimum, to perform a quality re-fret and fingerboard rejuvenation? Which are essential? Which are perhaps unnecessary but recommended?

2.) I'll be using Evo gold fret wire. Any advice as to which wire size would be good to go with? This guitar is used for modern solo fingerstyle stuff... lots of hammer-ons, dynamic technical tricks, etc., played all over the neck. Basically no strumming on this instrument, should that matter. I'm thinking that a bigger/taller wire than the stock Martin size on this guitar would do me right. I like a nice low action.

FYI, the guitar has an unbound rosewood fretboard.

Thanks!
