Steampunked USB Drives – English Russia Turns Old Clocks into Modern Technology

English Russia Turns Old Clocks into Modern Technology

English Russia have created a DIY of pictures showing the creation of a steampunked USB that you’re sure to love. My main issue with USB drives is how small they are, and this one not only makes the USB drive look cool, it makes it bigger (but not too big).

The English Russia step-by-step shows how to take an old watch and create an industrial looking USB drive. While you can’t buy one, you can certainly try your hand at creating one.
