Definition of Steam Punk as Object Style
Various modern utlitarian objects such as computer keyboards and electric guitars have been reimplemented by individual craftpersons in a pseudo-Victorian mechanical "steampunk" style. The goal of the redesigns are to employ appropriate materials (such as polished brass) with design elements and craftsmanship consistent with the Victorian era. This is a form of modding.

A friend of mine turned me onto this website www.steampunkworkshop.com. There aren't too many things I see that are a "must purchase", but unfortunately as cool as this computer is, none are available for sale. However, if you have some spare time and the right components,you to can set off on your own steampunk adventure. I also love what he did to the stratocaster. Fortunately I do have an antique typewriter and spare computer components, and a lot of spare time on my hands. I just don't have the tools, but this guy gives really good video demo's of how he performed the mods.
