Steampunk robot wedding-cake topper

Posted by Cory Doctorow, April 7, 2008 10:53 PM | permalink

It's too late to buy one of Etsy seller BuildersStudio's steampunky "Robot Bride and Groom Wedding Cake Topper Wood Statues with Base," but there's always the chance it'll come back before you need to get one on top of the cake. Indeed, you could just get one once they come back and wait for the kind of person who's willing to marry you with this as the centerpiece; surely that would be the best indicator of having found your heart's true destiny.

This is pretty neat.

But Cory, if you weren't busy blogging about every glued together piece of steampunked nik-gnak from your high altitude balloon, you could have built up your own navy of coal powered submarines by now ...

I'm so much cooler than you, I get the internet via a modified RFC1149 connection (IP via Tursiops truncatus).

Now I want to see what kind of monstrosity of a cake this would sit upon.
