I would say no just looking at the firing button, horn buttons are wired in. The REO is the only completely mechanical bottom feeders I am aware of but there may be others out there. Problem with wood mods is the wood does not conduct electricity. In a mechanical mod the body is often the negative conductor thus eliminating the need for wiring from the battery. A wood mod could be purely mechanical but would require a metal battery box, doable but I haven't seen one.

be careful when choosing a wood for a box. I had one of the original vv woodvils that was curly oak. It performed fine but I could never get past the smell of the wood, if the bottle of juice was left closed up in the box, say, over night, I could taste the wood in my vape. Many others had this issue as well and many didn't. Most of them say that the smell disappears over time but mine never quite did. I tried burying it in coffee for extended amounts of time but that didn't really help. I ended up using it with a carto tank and not using the bottom feeding feature and ended up selling it for that and other reasons.

Just be aware that this could be a concern.
