Do you do big Gibson style inlays before radiusing a fretboard or after?
How thick should the inlay material be?

Level and Radius the fretboard to 80g before inlaying.
How thick should the inlay material be?
Inlay material is generally about 1.5-2mm thick - depend what it is and where you get it from. Rare to find Mother of pearl or Abalone thicker than 2mm.
Measure twice, cut once...
