Finally I found the time to work again on the third USB stick in steampunk design. After my friend Remington Brass created brass rings, I attached them to the stick to hide the ugly edges of the leather inlay:

A friend (Remington Brass) has turned two brass rings, which I need for the third USB stick in steampunk design. I hope I will finish it this weekend or the next.

The glass lens is a light blue one, but the red LED of the stick is strong enough to outshine this.

One year ago I started to dive into Steampunk. My first Steampunk gadget was a USB stick. A part of a copper tube (18 mm diameter) and two end caps gives the following.

Looks a little boring, so I prepared some decoration:

And here is the result:
