Everything in the embedded video is wrong, dont do it that way. You can do a saddle and relief but you wont be able to do the nuts correctly. It takes a lot of experience because it isnt just getting the nut slot a bit higher than the fret. Correctly done, the nut slot is supposed to be curved shape so that the string lays in it all the way to the departure off the nut. Of course you could buy some blanks and spend time setting the maximum height with feeler guages and then practice getting the curve correct but how are you going to know if its correct?
Ill do the bottom end adjustments but not the nut. It will go to the best tech I can find.
