This R2-D2 Steampunk Teapot Is All Your Kitchen Is Missing

Forget about your other appliances. It doesn’t matter how cool your toaster, coffee machine or blender is, it has absolutely nothing on this hand-made R2-D2 teapot that would look perfectly at home in some sort of steampunk version of Star Wars.

Sadly, you can’t buy it, but if you’re willing to find all the bits and pieces (and a unsuspecting teapot), it can be yours. This Awe Me video shows you how it all comes together, from the original components to the final, boiling product.

Despite guiding you through the process of constructing your own retro-robotic teapot, you’re going to need to have some artistic skill to make it work. If you just tried to blindly follow along with the video you’d end up with something pretty crap.

However, if you do pull it off… please send us a photo.
