MHKflyer52 Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 That is one talented person and one fine work of art. I wounder how many hours it took to make the complete engine...just amazing.
notakit Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) think about how small the sparkplugs are, and the real cooling system, and hardened crank and other parts! THIS is incredible! Edited December 1, 2011 by notakit

At the end of the video, I believe "Horas de Trabajos" = Hours of work = 1220 That's 30.5 40-hour weeks :ack:
Birkin42 Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 I didn't think it had spark plugs, I thought it was running on compressed air. A ton of work for a show piece, but something to be proud of.
