Weathervanes, telescopes, moving parts?

All great ideas. Here is what is looks like right now. I changed the ceiling texture and the window textures adding the crosshatching in the curved windows and the brass to the round windows. I have added a bit of furniture and some wall lights.



It may well be that this main room is just too big. I use TP to get from level to level but perhaps a spiral staircase in the center would be more steampunk and break up the space better.

Now where do I get a steampunk sculptie spiral stair?

Here is the new Steampunk Hot Tub
