Can you use foil? I could see it working.

Re: Steampunk Emporium
Ah yes, back in the days before man knew how to actually make reliable engines....
I am in process of buying a few trucks and pieces of equipment, and I have to say it raised my eyebrows just how much advancement we have had in the past 5 years alone. Power, efficiency and reliability have really exploded in the past two decades at an impressive rate.

That Napier Deltic is beautiful. Seriously, a piece of art. Total man art.

Our Volvos both are SCR. Seem to be pretty good so far. Basically a Mack engine. PACCAR does SCR motors as well, but I have no first hand experience.

Re: Steampunk Emporium
I'm in trouble.
I like the aesthetic of late 40s-very early 50s.
I'm the only and lonely "Dieselatomicpunk" freak.

Re: Steampunk Emporium
From my perspective, the aesthetic of Dieselpunk seems to be art deco in a science fiction scenario, wot?

Re: Steampunk Emporium
Got the fez now by the way. Thick felt maroon felt jobby with stem, not tassel.
I have a hat on at home quite often, it can get a bit drafty for baldies. Might as well be something with a bit of style.
Let's fez it, it's actually quite a practical hat for indoors
