Who doesn’t love a steampunk flash drive, or steampunk anything for that matter? Over the next few weeks, this site will be highlighting some truly outrageous steampunk USB creations. First up is the Tesla Generator USB drive by Megan Kening from Israel. Crafted from materials such as copper, brass, glass, and paper, this is a […]
What is it about USB steampunk flash drives? Am I the only one with a keen interest in showing off these hand crafted USB drives? Could it be the material used which draws my attention? Could it be the fine detail of each device which peaks my interested? Could it be the impressive number of […]
Yes, we have a soft spot for USB steampunk of just about anything. Here is another design release from WWWorks aptly named “Imperial.” Like the USB Scorpion steampunk, the Eagle wraps around the tail of the USB with the LED in the position of the beating heart. What beauty. What symbolism.Brass tubing protects the inner […]
If you’ve been to this site before, you know we are a fan of USB Steampunk. We just received word there is a new kid on the block who’s doing some cool USB steampunk. This design is coined “Steampunk Scorpion USB.” WWWorks is the profile name over at Etsy and he’s done some nice work […]
I am a bit of USB steampunk enthusiast and today Etsy shopping put out a notice on a fine looking piece with a wood body and includes rotating dials. Unfortunately I’m just an armchair enthusiast and have yet to build my very own, but one day – it will come. Some say this USB steampunk […]
Here at GetUSB.info we love the USB steampunk drive. We’ve reported on at least a dozen of them over the past couple years and I’m sure we’ve missed three times that many. Today we are tipping you off to a great tutorial on how to USB steampunk your own flash drive. Instructables has a very […]
I have been a fan of USB Steampunk products for a long time. I’ve even thought about running a Steampunk contest for the most creative, but never gotten around to it. Today, I’ve come across another great creation which is 100% hand made. The construction is similar to other Steampunk products we’ve seen, made of […]
Back in June of 2009 I made a joke that GetUSB.info had a USB Steampunk award, now I’m seriously considering it. Especially after seeing this new rendition. This USB steampunk drive was made by a Russian modder. He traveled to a local rag fair [I’m assuming street fair] to pick up old clock parts and […]
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 […]
Wish I had the talent and I wish I had the time. Steampunk seems like a very cool way to take any product and turn it into something outstanding. Take this Steampunk USB mouse for example. Some Russian modd’er put in some serious hours making this Steampunk probably one of the best we’ve seen. Right […]
The Gatling gun is one of the earliest known rapid-fire, hand-cranked weapons. The Gatling design is a forerunner of the modern machine gun and rotary cannon. Invented by Richard Gatling, it saw limited use by Union forces during the American Civil War in the 1860s. Megan Kening of Etsy has taken this historic concept and […]
