Re: Getting the ball rolling. Which VB6 projects are you working on?
To be steampunk, the wires would need to be bare, tacked to the board with brass retainers, not glued. All the voltage and amps exposed to human flesh as they were up to the 1920s, the plastic connectors at the top would have to be ceramic (I still have a few of those), the busbars would need to be heavy gauge copper and the plastic knobs on the (admittedly ceramic) switches would need to be small control wheels with a separate handle for easy rotation, spaced farther apart
Someone gave it no thought if they thought that was steampunk.

I need no inspiration.
