If I need to glue down the fret ends, I use CA and just hold it down with a piece of spruce or something handly, but not my finger

Thanks guys! I've already nailed one fretboard up, which i will have to glue the ends I guess, but on the next one I'll do it with more precision as you (tom ) have graciously informed me on.
