SteamPunk Your Lead Pencil

Steampunking anything is really easy!
all you really need is a plan and a idea and that's it!
just get a bunch of wire gears and spare parts and put them together to make something new,
below are pictures of what this instruct able is all about.

i will not show you how to make this led pencil exactly!!!
i will show you what you need and how to start off but you should make your own design!!!

it only took me about 5h to make it. mainly because i had to let the quick dry glue dry.

Step 1: Pencil

first find yourself a fancy led pencil that's made out of metal like the picture shows below.i got my from Big Lost it costed only 10$ a set of the led pencil with 2 pens. Try to get one that has a golden tip and a golden eraser cover, it usually indicates that the metal casing is also golden once you remove the paint.

i would have used a different watch instead of a waltham repeater which is worth around $200 give or take. I'd suggest researching your materials before you tear them apart.

lol that watch was worthless it wasn't a waltham repeater. we looked everywhere to try to make a profit out of it but it was useless. so i found a use for it.

good look. But steampunk stuff should be usable. you could drill small holes in the pen. a drop of superglue on it. managed to hold the gears.
3 stars.

and yes you can write with it it does nothing to bother your normal writing skill

the gear are held on there very nicely without the holes. the problem is that the gears wont turn. im thinking about drilling holes big enough for the drills and adding a metal peace to the other side holding the gear in place, this way itll turn.
