  • It's time to fix the working Chronological Engine clock faces (and their unmentionable elecmatronicals) onto their stained and polished wooden bases.
    Another new jig you say? Yes, one that'll help be accurately fix the control arm and window together. Just a couple of laser off-cuts glued together, and another issue solved! I do love jigs, especially the wonderful card one that allows me to position all the salient parts onto the base. I keep adding notes to it, so it has become even better!
    Then there's how to make a bell ring on a steampunk machine and using magnets and miracles to get the control arm to locate properly over each option, quite probably unnecessary, but it is fascinating and feels nice!
    Thankfully I realised some time ago that the Victorians wouldn't have tried to hide the power connections to these machines; they would have proudly displayed them. So we don't need hidden wires, we need really blatent flexible pipes connecting everything up! Antique Brass Shower Hoses provide the perfect solution.
    Now time to connect all the machines up for thorough testing, especially with the customer's Barometric Prognosticator and yet another discontinued Oregon wireless weather sensor - will it work?
    As always I'm only too pleased to answer any questions and to provide support to those who want to make their own exciting steampunk machines. More information on all my machines can be found at steamhead.co.uk/ and you can purchase my exciting kits and machines at www.etsy.com/u...

    Good stuff as always. Glad you were able to find a replacement sensor that works well for you.

    Ya know superglue was developed during the Vietnam war as a field hospital instant wound closure alternative to butterfly sutures or stitches.

      I had heard that, but wondered whether it was one of those urban myths, although it made an appearance in the British film Dog Soldiers, when it was used by a soldier to keep his innards in! Actually, when I cut my head on a shed and had to go to A&E, I asked to be fixed back together with it, as I hate needles! Wonderful stuff.

    Excellent work, i love the selector, the solid clunk between each selection is a thing of joy, and does anyone actually know how to pronounce the neobyduminunuminem magnet name?
