Steampunk USB drives
on: July 02, 2011, 09:57:06 PM
Yah, you heard me, Steampunk USB drives. :o They don't take super skills to make, just a box full of brass and copper trinkets, a soldering iron, and a vivid imagination. :D I'm not in the market for one myself, but I do admit they look pretty retro-cool. 8) There's an unbelievable number of different ones posted on the 'net right now. Must be some sort of a fad...?  :)

















































Makes me almost think about firing up the old soldering iron and having a go at it myself :D
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

I agree. I would get tired fielding questions every time I used one of those at work...but each is a beautiful work of art.
