Here's the router base attachment for the Dremel. It has fine adjustment to get just the right depth, as you can see the cutter bit is easily visible and it has a spot to attach an air hose that blows the dust out of the way.

Next I put all the pieces in... well I trial and error fit each foot and toe. In the process I lost a big toe and had to cut another one. Turned out the first try at it was too small for a big toe and fit one of the other spots better so I cut out another one. That makes a total of 13 toes I've cut out and only need 8.
After the pieces are in their holes I pack some ebony sanding dust around them and drip some super glue on. It makes kind of a goobered mess.

Tomorrow I'll sand it and see how it came out.

I like the angled line of the dots better than on the first fretboard.
