Renninger’s Steampunk Industrial Show Mt. Dora, FL.
You can find all kinds of things at the show. We just happened to run into a
baby buggy in very good condition. It just needed a little cleaning. It was
what we were looking for online and there it was at the show.
Looking for it? You can find it.
Will and Patty live very close to us.
Will makes hats and other cool
steampunk stuff.
Fiona is trying on a hat that she
commissioned Will to make for her.
Nice lawnmower, made out of odds and ends.
Ray made his coat. It was first sewing job he
ever did. The guy next to him had his mother
make his coat. It had a lot of cool things on
it, but Ray was happy he made his own coat.
Both men looked outstanding in their coats
because each was unique in its own way.
There is almost no limit
to the imaginative
concoctions that people
make. The Segways
above have been
converted into very
impressive machines
indeed. And the man in
the photos at the right
has used his imagination
to make a truly unique
costume.
Steampunk events bring out
all kinds of creative outfits.
Just about anything goes as
long as it looks Victorian and
somewhat industrial.
We enjoyed
dressing up and
joining in on the
fun at this
event. Each
person who
dressed for the
event was
unique and each
outfit had
interesting
components.
This is the baby buggy
we found and bought
from one of the
vendors. It fits in
perfectly with the things
we like to do.
You can see from some of these
photos how the buggy turned out
once we cleaned it up and
“refreshed” the finishes on it. It
took some time and a little
research, but it was a labor of
love and we are enjoying using it
as a prop for some of our
adventures.
After removing all the rust from the carriage, Ray painted all of the
metal parts except for the chrome pieces. We decided the fabric was
too fragile to use, so we replaced the fabric liner and made a cushion
for the bed of the buggy.
The buggy is now getting use as a prop in photos
during some of our vintage outings. It is always a
conversation piece.
The original wooden
spoke wheels and the
rubber tires are still
usable on the buggy.
The chrome on the
wheels was rusted, but
they polished up nicely
with a lot of elbow
grease.
