Can anyone tell me what the steel player does at about 1:17 ? It looks like a behind the bar pull but there is no bar there so the string would just mute .
Also who is the player ? Loving his Ralph Mooney licks .

That’s Rusty Blake from Portland Oregon. He modded that 1000 by adding two strings to the top neck and installing a Shobud pickup

Looks to me like he's blocking an open string with the ulnar border/ 5th finger of his bar hand .

Any chance it has frets? It looks to me like a pull-off from a fretted fingerboard.

Looks to me like he's blocking the string instead of trusting the notorious gap in the side of the picking hand at the palm/pinky junction.

Yep. Just blocking the open F# on string 1.

Looks like he may have added an extra string either side of his roller bridge ? I can see his 10 string but not how or what it is anchored to

Looks like he's simply blocking the first string with his finger there.
By the way, if you ever get a chance to see Caleb and Reeb perform live, do it! Besides the country band referred to in this post, he has an old-timey string band (Foghorn String Band), a Cajun dance band configuration, and sometimes, just Caleb and Reeb perform as a duo. Really great stuff!

I really liked this video for the simplicity of the performance -- the steel licks to me sound very bluegrass and different -- I tabbed out the solo

Look at the pickup on the inside neck. Fender dual professional?

Indeed. A cool cobble.
