Another factor to consider is pullups, if you use them.
I use three different ways to tune the notes, the most common is to
pull the note up to pitch, and the most common of these are the
thirds on the second fret that are pulled up--normally sideways while
pressing down toward the treble
lower frets, say
down to 0.90mm and thereby set the lute 'fine'?

I think we have to be careful not to confuse two different issues
here. Using ever thicker frets to compensate for a warped neck does
not fix the neck; if it's an ongoing process it will eventually need
to be addressed. Aside from that, at what point the cables going
around the neck become too

Not really true that thicker frets have 'no drawback' - the use of
thinner frets (but still graduated by the same amount from lowest to
highest) allows the lute to be set more 'fine' than with thicker frets
)

The only way to get them tight down to the fingerboard - tie them hot.
Sometimes right out of boiling water might work. Tie them above the needed spot
(in the narrower part of the neck) and then move them to the place (carefully,
not to damage the fingerboard edges). Your knot should include

Nylon can be made to work, but it even more of a pain in the proverbial

indentation; some like that, it marks where the fret goes. Others dislike
it for the same reason, get it wrong and you are stuck. The knots are
prickly, and
Dana- this seems like excellent advice cautions in regard to nylon
frets. In line with that, I would also advise noting what the neck
and fingerboard are made of- ebony fingerboard with ebony veneered
neck would seem to be best; in any case the hardest, toughest woods
possible would be in
