No matter how fun your next SteamPunk event is, chances are you’re going to be doing a lot of standing. Daniel Valdez has the right idea. He can sit down, pour himself drinks, and move about freely. He’s not just wearing his technology, he’s making it work for him.
The Steampunk Professor Xavier Wheelchair by Daniel Valdez was made from a Victorian rocker from 1875, a Permobil C300 powered wheelchair, some pistons from a steelworks, an Arduino-based audio kit, and a drinks dispenser. You know, for the vodka and cranberry juice.

Not to mention it’s a beautiful and creative piece of work. Seriously, I want one.
