[Fot] FW: V-12 DIESEL ENGINE THAT FITS IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND

He has also built an amazing radial aircraft engine as well.

Both are actually powered by compressed air.

If he would connect to a small boiler he would have a very advanced poppet
valve steam engine.

Incredible piece of work.

  Just when you begain to feel smug about your machining and engine building,
  you see a master and his acomplishment.

  YOU HAVE GOT TO WATCH THIS CLIP, ITS AMAZING VIDEO OF TRUE CRAFTSMANSHIP.

  AN OPERATIONAL V-12 DIESEL ENGINE THAT FITS IN THE PALM
  OF YOUR HAND.

  This is not CNC Technology; this guy made everything at home on his lathe
and
  drill press.

  Took 1220 hours to make the 261 pieces.
  Note the end-loaded crankshaft into the block (like an Offy), 12 individual

  cylinder heads, TINY rods and pistons, dual "underhead" cams with pushrods
to
  rockers in the heads.

  And, he did break-in runs using an electric drill driving the crankshaft!
  Even if you're not an engineer, you'll love this!
