Pneumatic Fret Tang Nipper

Is there a Pneumatic Fret Tang Nipper out there or did anybody ever combined a Tang Nipper with a pneumatic Plier? Or maybe it is possible to take the Stewmac Tang Nipper (i like the new version) and modify it? I always make 20-40 Sets of frets ready so i can make a lot of fretboards ready in one day. But after a while my hand really hurts. Thank you

It’s possible I saw warmoth may have one? I saw one in a video and forgot the manufacturer. It’s a terrifying idea for a tool but often wished I had one.

50s Cherry and Walnut Stains

I tried a lot with 50s Cherry and Walnut Stains and ended with the WD Lockwood alcohol soluble dyes. Does anyone know what is the right color on the 50s Cherry and Walnut stains? Or do i have to mix some? Thank you

Thank you. Can you check the Number of the light golden Oak at WD Lockwood? Is it #519 golden (yellow) oak?
