Winner – USB Steampunk Award

Written by Richard Blanchard on June 10th, 2009. Posted in Hand Crafted USB

If, GetUSB.info had an award for best Steampunk drive, this would get it.  Set in a nice wood case, this Steampunk USB drive is riddled with over 30 mechanical parts from six different watches.  Some parts are from watches that are over 100 years old.

The 16GB hand crafted USB Steampunk also holds 26 Ruby gems which catch the light from different angles.  When the stick is plugged in the standard green LED illuminates and also creates a nice look.  Unfortunately no picture of it connected.

This prize winning Steampunk took nearly 12 hours to complete…and looks fantastic.  What do you think?
