some appropriately placed clear coat would really help on the safety issues you might have Mr.Kid, By the fire switch, solder a nut and a glass tube around it would keep that area clear as well...this could possibly be a must have for 'Ol Foggy!
it's a gorgeous mod i must admit, especially the zebra wood. i'd change a few things such as either a light indent in the battery cap so that lever style holder stays in place or putting a spring at its other end. some of those steampunk mods in the facebook groups go for very high prices.
It's certainly a neat design, but I don't know. I can definitely see the excellent artistry and craftsmanship. Not so much spending the money on it, however.
