I totally agree Bob. i like the idea of hardwood,copper tubing, brass fittings,rivets,sprockets and gears,bells and whistles for that paralell Victorian industrial age theme merging with rat rods. Fascinating possabilities.

I love that stuff. It reminds me of some of my projects. A little different style but similar. (I'll post up on the metal thread)

People like to see how things work. Ever stop and watch an episode of "How It's Made"?
Anyone ever seen the movies Brazil, Dark City, City of Lost Children, or even 12 Monkeys? They all have that bizarre type antique futuristic type mechanical stuff at some point - always fascinated me. Guess it's called retrofuturism.
The House on the Rock is the first place I ran into this kind of stuff when I was like 14 - blew my mind then.
