The pin locations on each end are positioned by measuring down from the top fretboard mounting board

and assume the fretboard blank will be .25 thick. This will result in radius options of 7.5, 9.5, 10, 12, 14 and
16. A compound radius can be obtained by placing the pins in different holes. For example, the pin on the
nut end could be inserted into the 10 hole while the pin at the heel end could be placed in the 16 hole.
