We call ourselves Oilpunk so it only fitting that we visit the source, the Mecca, the La Brea Tar pits.
Both our creatures and the handlers enjoyed the humans we found here.

La Brea Tar Pits Park
With an assist from festival art curator Phil Blaine, the La Brea Tar Pits Park becomes a haven for large-scale art installations including the Golden Mean and the Electrobite. The imaginative pieces create an experience that’s far from the usual walk in the park while providing an art preview of Insomniac’s upcoming Electric Daisy Carnival.
I really excited to see our creatures at the La Brea Tar Pits!

Who needs farm show when I have friends like Fritz Hagist. Here is a true pyro solution to pesky weeds! Note that the propane line enters the combustion chamber for a pre-heat before the burners.
We are packing today and off to Maker Faire. This is a great event for kids and I guarantee it will hold the interest of anyone who shows up that likes to make, do or learn.
The Boiler Bar crew will be there with the Giant Iron Snail Car the Golden Mean, the Electrobite, and more. We will also be doing demos on building an electric lady bug, wire card holders, casting snail pins, and how to build a fire garden.
We will be vending hand made items by the crew and will have kits available for you to work on at home.
Please stop by and say hello!
While searching the web for pictures of the Electric Daisy Carnival I came across these pictures in surprising quantity. It got me thinking about what I carry in my pockets every day. This is a light day, no change, and I had to use the camera to shoot the picture. Every once in a while I get called out on how many items I have on my belt. Try Google and you will see what I mean.
My pockets
I like the chainmaille supplies in this one, just in case!
Office guy.
Next week I’ll do one on what I carry in my truck at all times. Skin stapler is a must!
The Boiler Bar Stage and dancing girls will be there in all our glory for you to enjoy the toil of our performance and perfection.
The Giant Iron Snail will be on guard letting you enjoy in the comforts of her insides. Musical performance, dancing carnies, frolicking trollops, and loose wallets just to grease the fun. Come and enjoy our company and we yours!
