That's just too funny. When I was designing my TTT my daughter told me I should finish it to look 'steampunk'. I nodded and thought to myself, "what is steampunk?" Had to google it while she wasn't looking. She still wants aluminum with copper trim and rivets. Her generation's 'cool' factor and mine are very different. :thinking:
