I demonstrate fretting techniques over the body, as opposed to fretting the fretboard prior to attaching the neck. This is the ideal way to fret the board because it allows you to radius and level the fingerboard in place, before fretting. I break this down into 3 parts. These are all excerpts from the Online Guitar Building School course: Building an OM Acoustic. This is part 2.
