From start to finish:
bending the fret wire
cutting to length
trimming tangs (StewMac tang nipper)
filing flat (the cutter leaves a bit of the tang)
cleaning with lighter fluid
filing the slots' edges a tiny bit
installing frets (medium superglue and a Crimson Guitars hemmer)
trimming the overhand flush
filing edges flush with the neck
filing a gentle bevel (I like the usable surface of frets as wide as possible)
filing fret ends (Crimson Guitars fret ends file)
filling fret slot ends with a thin superglue and fretboard dust
sanding off the glue and dust
straightening the neck for fret levelling
fret levelling (Crimson Guitars levelling beam with 400 grit paper)
taping the fretboard up for fret crowning and polishing
crowning the frets with a Crimson Guitars fret crowning file
polishing with 800, 1500 and 2000 grit paper
buffing with a dremel
cleaning up with a Crimson Guitars strop
