Book Description

Make: Technology on Your Time March 6, 2009

In Volume 17, MAKE Magazine goes really old school with a special section on steampunk, featuring projects that blend Victorian era technology with the cutting edge. Build your own marble adding machine or geared candleholder, and make music with a random music generator.

MAKE continues to be a leader in the tech DIY movement due to its uncanny instinct to nail the curiosity, vitality, and passion of the growing community of Makers -- DIY enthusiasts, hobbyist engineers/designers, and many others. If you like to tweak, disassemble, recreate, and invent cool new uses for technology, you'll love MAKE, our project-based quarterly for the inquisitive do-it-yourselfer.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Make: Technology on Your Time Volume 17 (Paperback)
Bought this for my little brother who, like me, finds a fascination with steampunk. This issue is great for anyone who has a little creativity in them and has a steampunk itch. The directions are clear and concise. A great buy overall.
