Way cool piano pics

He certainly is ambitious, and seems to have extra cash to 
play with. Does very pretty work too. I see he's got the 
compulsory 8 monochords, 5 bichords, and 7 trichords for a 20 
note bass. I wonder where that recipe came from, and if his 
A-0 core wire is 1.6mm. I can't tell if it's a ring bridge, 
but I suspect it might just be. Take a look at what he did 
with the bridge layout to avoid conflicting pin rows, and the 
four strings per note in the top three sections. I'd love to 
see the scaling numbers on this piano. Any idea what the huge 
(looks like about) 25mm circles all over the soundboard are? 
They might correspond to rib locations, from the spacing, but 
what are they?

Not enough pictures of construction details.

Aha!

Yup, it's a ring bridge.
