Such amazing skill involved. Those guys running the huge shapers don't look worried at all. I watched a slideshow of Collings guitar factory, and it doesn't look like the technology has changed too much. Still lots of hand tools involved. The styles have certainly changed, I can't say for the better. Crazy to see those guys spraying lacquer with no protective gear at all. YIKES!
