Too bad it is no longer available. I used something called "Buzz-Off" fret leveling kit. Had steel bars for use as a fret rocker and a piece of wood with a groove to match the fret profile.

By varying the pressure applied, I was able to sand portions of a fret.

You wrap the fine sand paper over the wood form, then restore the finish on the fret with 0000 steel wool after taping the finger board with blue masking tape.

I also have a small triangle file, but didn't have the courage or skill to try using it.

Perhaps the right sized round file could allow you to make a curved slot in a piece of hardwood, and you would have your own tool for the fret.

Very interesting and worth the $20 bucks.
