Hoo hoo! This was so fun to make . . . our first steampunk piece and it’s called ‘ Time Capsule’. And I’m telling ya it won’t be our last.
Now this just isn’t *any* SP piece– this is a working time travel instrumentation device. I tried it out myself the other evening when I dragged myself out of the studio at 11:30 at night. I was so burned out I thought that was a good time to try it.
So I ever so timidly moved the clock handle down just ever so slightly, then down a little more, and down even further still. And WALAH!!!! It was back in the early evening so I went to watch a movie instead of working in the studio. AND of course I still had it the Time Capsule with me so I really like this thing!
Why I’m selling it in our etsy shop is beyond me. I really should hold onto it as I’m not sure if I can make another one that works this well– or even at all. Anyway, there’s more details about how it was made on the etsy listing.

WOW!
I love the whole steampunk genre. I also collect and sell
vintage clothing and the mix of antique and technical with
steampunk calls to me. This is visually wonderful and the fact that it is a working piece makes it fantastic.
Well done!!
Sue:)
