Perhaps the greatest aspect of being a maker is taking something that would otherwise be labeled as garbage, and turning it into a brand new device or work of art. Take a car compressor for example. When it’s no longer needed, it typically goes straight to the junkyard, along with the rest of the car.
Not so with this Industrial Steampunk desk clock! Where most people would see a piece of used junk, one Tindarian saw an opportunity to bring it back to life in another form. Using the inside chamber of a car compressor, this clock comes with two AA batteries and some easy usage instructions.
The turning knob on the back of the device adjusts the time, while the lock module itself is accessibled by removing the clock face from the compressor chamber (which is attached via magnets).
Simple, elegant, but most of all, pretty damn cool.
