Steampunk Overload

[Jgrden]

Went too far on this one. Don't know why I am sharing except to keep in the loop.









The last two are the start of a new one with attachments closer to the tube.

Looks like you are having a good time!!

These are a blast to make. Loads of fun. Every part has found itself on the floor. My eyes are so bad and the parts soooo small that they all fine their way South.

It's only too far when you can no longer hold it.The more congestd the better. That way it looks like real steamworks,like in a factory or something.Lookin good so far.

I perceive that you have been able to travail self indoctrination of pen-oriented Steampunk, and survive! Congrats :biggrin::biggrin:

Now it is time to refine those acquired skills with focused creativity. Have fun!

I love your creativity !!!! . I especially love the first pen you pictured above, which is half cigar !! . I don't think you went too far at all !!
Please keep posting your steampunk work.

Those look really great.

Looks excellent John! Your' complaints fell on deaf ears... Basically, get back to work, these look great!

And I agree.

In my opinion, you are only behind si90 in this narrow band of penturning. Have FUN!

Excellent John,
Love Pen 1, with all it's Gizmo's, the Only Thought is where and how do you hold it to write?
Unit 2, is very interesting, love the Knob etc. In General the Soldering has Definitely Improved, though I can't see the other side of Unit 2.
Where do you get all your Fiddly Bits From? I love them.
Fantastic Creativity.
Congratulations,
Brian.

The tubes come from K&S engineering. As far as ideas; once you place one bent piece of tubing onto the host, the rest seems to fall into place. The challenge now is to find miniature gadgets that would create a theme. The next goal is to create a Star Wars theme for my son. The most important issue, and one that I appreciate your observation on, is improving the soldering and bending skills.
Thank you, again for your kind remarks.
One would purchase hazard pay to write with the Overlaod Steampunk. That gear on the bottom is harmful.

Heh ... you'ld be doing him a great gift for years to come if you copied that levitating lightsabre pen someone did in a previous contest here ... I'll have to go dig that thing up!

Aha! I found the link! http://www.penturners.org/forum/f299/kitless-contest-real-voting-thread-134551/#post1789222

Good Luck, and May The Force Be With You!

Thank you for sharing that.
Here is the base of the project. Rough and messy ....
