Totally leaves out the making of the body, which is a long process.

Ollie Strong is the steeler demonstrating the steel. Ollie told me he went there just to visit with Ed and got into the middle of the taping. They wanted a demonstration and how he got to play it in that segment.

Manyof the How Its Made segments leave a lot out - some leave so much out they may as well not even show it.

Ollie is a member of our Florida Steel Guitar Club and Jack and I have played many times with him.
He is a super steel player as well as one of the nicest guys you would ever want to meet.
