if you are unfamiliar, steampunk is the craft of making new boring items fit into the ornate themes of the by-gone years

for example, remember those awesome looking steamtrains from the good ol days? what about the old clocks?

this is jazzing up todays items- tv's, computers, etc... to the good ol ways. the road travelled to the items destination being just as great as the end product itself- using whatever comes your way, and finding a use for it

if you can slap in a good ol boiler to make it truely steam powered (or even just appear to be so) then even better

brilliant example:

Some of that steampunk stuff is absolutely amazing. It just blows me away what some people are able to do with old bits and pieces.
