Steampunk Challenge: Inventions and inventors

I am modifying this post as requested, and with my sincere apologies to the artist Erin Keck.

Lucky me! I am at the Create art retreat in New Jersey this week, and my first class today was with Erin Keck making an awesome steampunk clock, which I am going to enter in SanDee and Amelie's challenge here.

I love how a class of nine students using basically the same materials makes nine totally unique clocks! Hers's mine!

Added all kinds of cool things that you can see in the close up of my clock-you name it, it's likely to be here,

Side view to give you an idea of the dimension.

"Live in the moment"

Eventually I reached a point where I had to tell myself, enough is enough, because you could just keep adding more cool "junk" to this.

And, it's a working clock and keeps the time, so invention? Well yes!
