@ Paul,
concerning a cutting comment. True and untrue.. speed (actually pressure) is absolutely a factor, but not the only! Water can cut through almost anything with the right pressure. Water is a VERY special molecule, bi polar, strong surface tension, uncompressable. so water is more that the thrusth crushing liquid we drink. do not underestimate it. Still Cotton will have more a cutting effect then any most other pieces of cloth, which will be noticed after extended repeated use.
Hemp and silk are also absorbent..
The comment on plating issue was meant to compare a thick porrous layer (like used to metalise kids shoes or something stupid (IMHO) like that) vs a thinner burnished layer. If Wurlitzer used the correct way (multiple layers with tumbling/burnishing) in between it would definately increase the quality of the plating.
but as I said, this is generally not done, generally does not mean never and people choosing for quality will. It's a choose.
