I have always wondered how Alembics custom brass bridges, tailpieces, and switch-covers on some custom models were made and if Alembic has any photos of this amazing work on their site.

I haven't documented much of the brass fabrication. We have a CNC mill that handles most of the work, but some of the newer styles (like the concealed hardware style) are completely handmade. I've only got photos of finished items on the site right now. Thanks for the suggestion, I'm want to expand the website and I'll definitely add the brass fabrication when I do.
