Where can I get a set of those?

With the recent events in Greece (and some of the fires still burning) I wasn’t in posting mood.

I might write something about this, but if I do, I wouldn’t want to sound like any other retarded blogger that just posts bits of info he/she picked up and random thoughts. I believe this goes a little deeper than what is generally believed…

Steampunk and it’s variations, match perfectly my current mood. For some reason, I’ve always connected steampunk with a decaying and declining society, something like a Mad Max world of the past. This anachronism fascinates me and scares me at the same time.

So today, I present you Daniel Pon.

There are many steampunk (or neo-Victorian) keyboards and mice out there, but I found Daniel’s outstanding.

In the same post, you can also see the monitor he made to accompany this small wonder.

And here you can see the mouse that matches the keyboard above. What I find really fascinating about this particular mod, is the fact that he used a real rodent skeleton. I guess when I was talking about decay, right above, this is what I had in mind.

I must say, I am really looking forward to seeing the computer case that will go with this set. It is one of his upcoming projects.

Reuse your LEGO

Do you have a box full of LEGO bricks that you know you are never going to play with, but you are too sentimental to throw away?

How about reusing them, turning them into everyday objects, such as kitchenware? Why not? I am sure you’ve seen a lot of “designer” house hold items that are way ugly and cost a shit load of money.

If by any chance you are still reading this, which would mean you are not laughing your guts out, and find this somewhat nice, head over to Evil Mad Scientist Labs, for some more ideas on LEGO kitchen craft (click on the image).

Now, if your LEGO collection is really big, why not make something impressive?

This marvel took more than 10,000 pieces and 3 months to complete. Check the creator’s site for more. Click on Han Solo to see the other 9 strangest LEGO creations according to TechBlog.

My personal favorite. Click on the image to see Winston’s Lego Computer.

Now that you’ve got some nice ideas, go to the store room, find that old box and start crafting!
