Steampunk Keyboard
Inspired by Jake Von Slatt’s work you can see here:
I also decided that having a steampunk keyboard is the best decision ever. As I always point out, patience is not my strong suit, so it’s not as beautiful as Jake’s, but nevertheless I’m quite happy. It’s still in the works though.
