I always keep some bamboo skewers handy for small repairs, just as
David v.O. suggests. If you have some dried glue left on the
soundboard, and you don't want to try to remove it, you can make some
very thin grooves in the back of the fret before gluing it. Otherwise
it may (will) pop off again.
Of course you can also imagine that the HIP Deities are "informing" you
that body frets were not very common on lutes and go fret-loose and
fancy free.

My way:
- bamboo skewer
- white glue (breaks off easily when there's need to remove or
reglue)
- eraser between fret and strings to press fret

for body frets.
How about glue?

this do-able, or even advisable?
Thanks and regards!
