No, it says the tailpiece and bridge cover are copper.
I want to see the guts, the resonator/bridge coupling. C'mon you're hiding the magic. :D

Re: Steam Powered Thickness Planer

Now that is just so cool!

Actually at about 7:45 you can see that the guy catching the wood is wearing ear plugs.

That's really getting to know your wood, sure turned out nice!
