Jake Von Slott has created a Steampunk PC design that is to sure drive DIY steampunk enthusiasts bonkers over it’s ultra-ornate design. Kicking off the design process, Jake takes a huge 24 inch LCD computer monitor and shoehorns an entire CPU behind it and still manages to make the entire design look like a million bucks. You could do it yourself, for it first, trim of all the excess plastic and get the monitor in a nice rectangle shape. Then, craft the CPU’s motherboard behind the monitor which’ll then sit on ornate looking knick knack shelves, simmilar to what Jake has managed to find at a local downtown dump. The entire Monitor-CPU assembly sits on an ornate frame that Jake has fashioned out from yet another shelf from the downtown dump. Catch a glimpse of the specs and pictures of this incredible Steampunk creation after the jump.
Now, you have the computer sitting behind the monitor in a nice stage-like frame which goes further to even have curtains behind grand brass pillars on either side of the LCD screen. On the rearside, the computer’s fan lies behind a nice decorated mesh. The Steampunk design is rounded off with the keyboard that fellow steampunk designer, Datamacer has made. This design’s antiquity or steampunkness ends right with it’s exterior. It features a state-of-the-art Intel pentium-4 chipset and all the bells and whistles are what a modern day computer can have. Although you can’t buy this very ornate one-off steampunk computer, you sure can catch a glimpse of it at the Maker Faire in San Mateo, California, where it will be displayed on the 3rd and 4th of May.
