I believe that Steampunk is more than just brass and watchparts. It's finding a way to combine the past and the future in an aesthetic pleasing yet still punkish way. It's living a life that looks old-fashioned, yet speaks to the future. It's taking the detritus of our modern technological society and remaking it into useful things. Join me as I search for items for my house that combine the scientific romanticism of the Victorians with our real present and imagined future.

Wireless Home Router
Ah, the clever Radio Rental... he's disguised his wireless router as a... clock? radio? All I know is that the dial on the front is not just for looks: The rev counter is a rough aproximation of the traffic utilisation between my home network and the internet. (perfect for telling when the youngsters are downloading something illicit?) The entire how-to is here on instructables, in case you'd like to do the same.
