You're right when you factor in the power brick, but the wiring is actually silicone jacketed which is much nicer in any case! The main plastics are in the switches inside the machine. Would be fun someday to roll custom ceramic parts for those but for now, keeping scope creep to a minimum!

That's very cool.
When taking into account the power brick, what percentage by weight/volume is plastic? 5%? 10%? That's the number you should be advertising.
