Or do you align the bottom of the nut with the first fret only therefore dismiss any relief in the following frets, most videos I see demonstrating this technique use a straight edge covering frets 2 and 3.
I am not sure why fret 3 would ever enter the equation ... check out this listing for a tool which will get the nut slot base dead in line with the plane of the first two frets.
