DIY Friday: Steampunk Satellite Dish

 

We’ve done featured quite a few DIY projects that recycle or re-use old satellite antennas. From using an old Primestar reflector to improve WiFi, to the wireless Internet cantenna, to more physical structures such as this BUD gazebo and the ever-popular solar cooker. Not mention one for the birds.

Today, you’re on your own with the steampunk satellite dish. We’re inspired by work commissioned by Telstra in Australia and created by Martin Dolan and the mArty Gallery, near Melbourne.

 

 

Look around your shop for old pipe and things parabolic, and have at it!

Australia. Steampunk. I’m thinking Mad Max, aren’t you?
