A local Pub used to have a collection of ancient Drills painted up and 'Displayed' round the Bar.
This sort:-
I once went to an American Bar which had a 'Machinery' theme and there were old Lathes painted up in bright colours and scattered round the place. It was similar in a '50s Car' themed place.
None of the above actually worked. As the Article noted finish is everything, ie it doesn't have to work, just be nice and shiny.
I suspect it's a passing fad which will make a few people a lot of money in the short term.
