Dimensions are between 3 1/4″ and 3 1/2″ square.

If you’re not familiar with my framed processors here’s the scoop in a nutshell. As a geek I’ve collected these processors for years but never had a good way to show them off so I created these clever frames to hold the processor. They stand up so that you can view the front or the back, or lay down as seen in the pictures. Marvel at all of the gold pins on the back or enjoy the front of these processors that date back to the early 1990s. Each frame is meticulously hand made and sanded to a smooth finish you have to feel to believe. I made very few of these so this will truly be a one-of-a-kind gift.

Frame # 1 is made of cherry, frame # 2 walnut, frame # 3 hard maple, frame # 4 white oak, frame # 5 cherry. True geeks will notice the wood grain in #2 creates the perfect outline of the Windows flag logo. It happened on pure chance. It’s my most prized piece.

Review on ForeverGeek.com

Robin Parrish of ForeverGeek.com poses the question, “Can Computer Parts Be Art?” in a review of my Modern Art collection and the services that I offer. I think we all know the answer but check out what Robin had to say here!

Thank you Veterans

As Veterans Day approaches I want to take this time to thank our veterans for their service. They are the reason I live in a country where I’m free to follow my dreams.

Special thanks goes out to my great uncle Ardy, you are my greatest war hero. Thanks also go to my late grandpa Roy, late great uncles Dale and John, my aunt Call, cousins Andy, Sara, and Matt, and my good friend Jacob. Thank you for all you’ve given to this country. You deserve many thanks.

You are not Forgotten.

A lot of people have asked to see my work close up. So I created a YouTube channel to show off what I build. Check out my new channel and like my videos!

Prototype Corner shows off my newest designs!

Do you want to see the latest projects I’ve been working on? I’m so excited to share with the world what I’m up to that I’ve taken to the tubes of the internet to share my prototypes on my Facebook page and via my Twitter page. However, I understand not everyone hangs out in the same tubes so hey I created a Prototype Corner page on my website that I’ll also update with the coolest of my prototypes.

Scared of Facebook or Twitter? Well I made my Facebook page public so you don’t even need an account to view it. Just click on any of my Facebook links I have pasted all over my site and enjoy the ride. The same goes with Twitter! Or read my latest tweets on the right sidebar of my home page.

Do you HAVE to be the first to have the coolest newest everything? Then my Prototype Corner page is the place to be. If you see something you HAVE to have before the rest of the world has it drop me a line at brian@kugelmemorabilia.com and beg commission me to build the piece for YOU first. Like any company not all prototypes make it to production. Sometimes my mood changes and I only make one of something before SQUIRREL moving onto something else. So if you SQUIRREL like what you see on prototype corner like and comment on the Facebook posting for it or email me and tell me you like it. The record for selling a prototype build is two hours, so you better pounce quick!

New CPU available and prototype pics posted to facebook

Check out the new IBM/Cyrix CPU from 1995 that I framed. This CPU has gold bling on the front and back! The cherry wood frame really compliments the gold. Check it out on my CPU Desk Art page.

Remember you can purchase my Intel Ceramic Pentium frames and Intel PIII frames with your choice of wood. I have more than one available so these are made to order. They are even the cheapest! How cool is that? A frame custom made with your choice of wood offered cheaper than any of my other CPUs. Value +1 :)

In other news I posted a whole bunch of pictures to facebook showing off some prototype work I’m doing with Game Boy game cartridges and NES cartridges. Check it out here.
