I went to a steam rally yesterday...obviously nothing was on the scale of some of the stuff in this thread but it was awesome...both my grandad and my uncle are engineers/inventors so it was great having the mechanisms of stuff explained to me (I didn't inherit any of their technical/practical abilities sadly).
Very sick thread though, awesome stuff.
