I don't know anything
I don't know anything, but for me, it is way easier and gives better results to sand the fretboard radius on the top of the saddle, then sand the bottom of the saddle on a flat surface until the E/e are the height I want, and everything in the middle just works out automatically perfect (from an engineering standpoint, I know some people want wonky action on the middle strings, for some reason [I know i know, bending, but my fingers don't seem to care, they bend the strings])

Same as Charles though not quite as long I've been using a steel ruler for 25 years. The ruler I have measures in 64/ths but I just use the 32's. A measurement of 3&1/2 - 32's is close enough. It's pretty incredible what the eye is capable of really, don't doubt it so much
I also do just like Banks mentioned. While I understand that a mathematician can demonstrate on paper that the string heights will be off if you make the radius of the saddle the same as that of the fretbaord in the real world that's like pulling hairs. |
