Fan

I modified my floor fan using some spray paint to look more steampunk.
It started life as a plain white floor fan. I took it completely apart except for the motor and painted it.



Now it would look right at home in any steampunk home or workshop.  This is an example of a quick, easy, and inexpensive way to add a little steampunk style to an ordinary object. The whole project cost about $20 in paint, and I have enough left over for other projects. It took one evening to paint everything and 24 hours for the paint to dry. The keyboard project is taking a little longer than I expected as I've been having trouble tracking down all of the materials that I need, however I do believe I've found the final pieces and if when they arrive they are indeed the correct pieces, I will be back on track to finish the keyboard in about a week or 2.
