Steam Punk Goggles

Steam Punk goggles that I made for the Monkey Puzzle New Years eve party 2007.

The gears came from a old car CD player. The controls for the CD player broke and I ended up listening to Skinny Puppy- the process for 6 months before I got a new player. I had to take it apart to get the CD out of the player and saved the pieces for future projects. The copper and brass bits I machined myself. I think I get geek points for machining my costume the day of the event?

Where do you get the gears from, please?

@iSeenthatB4

The gears came out of a Car CD player that had the automatic face that flips around backwards (It is in the video description). You can find similar gears in most any home appliance that has a motor. Let me know what you build, I'd love to see it.

Holy...Crap.. I made something a set of goggles almost identical to these, down to the position of the gears. @_o.. which I also got my gears from a junked car cd player, too much freakyness.
