    The first question. As to the attachment in the photo. It's not. It's a mechanical .5mm pencil shown for scale .
    The attachments used were primarily the Dremel cut off wheels.

    The 3rd pin is only an easier way to terminate the points on the inlays as trying to cut into the wood and leave a super tiny V point is just miserable to try and clean out.
    The inlays are epoxied in place with Devcon.

    So if I understand the is right the third pin then is also epoxied in place. If the "file work" is done with a dremel cut off wheel are you then using a sanding progression to finish it or are there various grits available in the cut off wheels.
    It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!
