Unklain is a steampunker maniac. He made this computer mouse that is designed to look like a furnace. The pipes that form the cage to support your hand are linked to fake coal and an orange LED to look like hot coals. To take something so indispensible and techy and make it look old and mechanical is just wicked. I had to add this R2D2 steampunk by amoebabloke. Read more to see R2 being built.
