Eh? There were certainly some "pretty big" rim presses in the factory
when the Boston chapter toured the factory in February. Of course, the
layers of veneer (maple, right?) are all relatively thin, and coatings
of hot glue help it become even more compliant. It takes a large crew to
put it all together (and lots of clamps).
