There’s more than a few valve’s worth of pressurized love for steampunk on MeFi [previously 1 2 3]. Naturally, we’ve also had to replace many a sump filter due to the vitriol sluicing from the very same….

Is it just using magnets coated with some thin layer of metal for conductivity? What are the magnets sticking to?</p> I am much more interested in the battery holder personally than in the joule thief etc. How did he do that?

Somewhat oddly for a steampunk-design it is far more practical than my decidely non-steampunk "busy" sign which I have to activate manually. And a better use of a battery to boot. Now if only I were talented enough to make this myself... or wealthy enough to employ artists to craft items like this for me.</p> Lovely.
