Here's my Steam Dart (640 or 400 pixelwidths)

and the back (640 or 400 pixelwidths).

50 pieces. Parts photo (800 pixelwidth, sorry)

It's a loose homage to my all time favorite impulse set: 6824.

Here's another entry I was able to whip up.

It's called the "Bi-Penny", based on an old, penny-farthing bicycle.

And some galleries of photos:

Here's my very silly entry - the SteamHorse.

Fed up with single Horsepower? Then try the all new SteamHorse - with an amazing output of TWO Horsepower, the SteamHorse is THE mode of transport for the future!

The Nutcracker has been developed to actually "pop" enemy steamboats' and zeppelins balloons. It's own small balloon is protected by it's own propellers.

Come one, Come all! Ladies and Gentlemen, Children of all ages, step right up. Introducing Conrad Cornelius O'Donald O'Dell's Fabulous Brass Ring Carousel Ride. This exciting steam powered ride is sure to thrill you. Ride high into the sky and plunge back down again in what is a non stop exciting ride. Bring along a friend and ride in tandem. This ride is not for the faint of heart, the un-daring, those who avoid life's thrills, nor those fair ladies in the later stages of child bearing. So step right up, buy a ticket and let's ride off on Conrad Cornelius O'Donald O'Dell's Fabulous Brass Ring Carousel Ride.

Conrad Cornelius O'Donald O'Dell's Fabulous Brass Ring Carousel Ride was designed and built by Ralph J Somerby, inventor and engineer. The vehicle consists of primarily of brass beams which was requested by the eccentric and extremely wealthy Mr. Conrad Cornelius O'Donald O'Dell.

Entry #40 By: Ed M

This child's toy was built by young Holmes Somerby, grandson of inventor and engineer Ralph J Somerby. Young Holmes likes to spend time in his grandfather's workshop, enjoys watching over his grandfathers shoulder and learning all about engineering. This toy was made from spare parts Holmes found in the workshop. As young Holmes says with great excitement in his voice "you hold on to it here [differential gear case] and spin it around" while showing you with his hands how it spins around.

Total part count - 18 pieces (picture still)

For more picture stills please visit young Holmes' sketchbook at the Brickshelf Library.
