A good steam punk factor is to replace all the hose with hard copper pipe and a few cheap brass valves

Thanks BigR. Is steam junk better then steam trunk?
And I think YHB's boiler just adds to the steam punkyness.
I think if we put Rocks column on YHB's boiler. We would have a good steam punk setup.

Mash Rookie...do you have more picture or diagram of how your steam punk still works? I love the look of it and I found some great stainless steel bowls that I could use for something like your beauty. Do the bowls form part of the vapor column or are they a number of inline thumpers? I can't from the picture figure out the purpose of the bowls and the piping??
