That's awesome! I've always been intrigued by steam engines. I wish this came as a kit, I'd buy one.

And just some off topic, but while I was looking for steampunk design about four years ago I found this beautifully done project, which just received a beta update. They have very professionally produced songs which resemble some sort of musical, which I really enjoy: http://www.clockworkquartet.com
