480volt Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 Very creative, nice attention to “means and methods”. All it lacks is a hammer... Though, if you’re making it for a Con, I suppose a hammer might not make it through security. Quote

480volt Posted February 19, 2018 Report Posted February 19, 2018 One last comment about your project. In my own opinion, the steampunk esthetic has slid from an attempt at (sort of) a plausible adherence to a story line or actually functional things, to “stick a bunch of brass gears and shit on it”. I think you get high marks for making something that looks practical and functional. Quote

I agree about the functional aspect of anything... or else it's just a pile of gears and crap like you said. On a side note... One of my future projects is to be putting picatinny rails and laser sights on a flintlock... Gotta love the anachronistically incorrectness of it. Thank you all for the nice words. Quote
