As a retired machine designer, 40 years, wish I had you on my team, back then. Outstanding work.
Matthias, as much as I enjoy watching your videos, the imprecision of everything you build drives me crazy.
In another video he stated something like "I couldn't be bothered to do that" in reference to something similar. He makes me lmao in most of his videos with his comments!!!
I like the "retroactive precision". Nice work. Thanks for the video.
Same! I started laughing when I heard "retroactive precision"
I'm using this at work.
I love how this guy doesn't spend half the video talking about what he made, instead he just does a quick overview and then shows us how to make it. Wish more channels were like this
Excellent work done. More interesting, very very interested to watch the video.workmanship is amazing, many many thanks
"I'll just use the sander to add some retroactive-precision" -Matthias Wandel, 2017
Love it. :)
I made a 10 part series 4 weeks ago, showing how I make an air engine & out of nowhere you make a new air engine video, what a coincidence.
lol
I like that you're able to get a reasonable level of precision without using expensive tools. fantastic
Matthias, your projects are awesome, your videos are brilliant. Thank you for sharing these wonderful inspirational jewels with us.
he who work with his hand is laborer, he who work with his hand and mind is craftman, he who work with hand, mind and heart is a genius. You are the last one.
Rafael Camilo so that Makes me a craftsman
he is neither.
your a bellend
your breath stinks
Very clever design AND production of this engine! Thank you!
Matthias, as usual, your video production is a work of art in itself - beautifully done!
"Add some retroactive precision", is goddamn engineering poetry
Very scared face at 3:30 !
Rockappalla I thought I was the only one.
I swear I almost felt sorry for the poor thing.
You just caused at least 15 people to go back and review! At least I did!
My Dad whenever he sees me using the table saw without a blade guard.
٩( ʘ□ ʘ )۶
Face? Did he edit the video again, I don't see a face.
I really admire all the work you've done, I haven't seen it all, but I'm loving what I've seen so far!
Thank you for making these videos, you've inspired me to learn about woodworking for years, now I'm finally taking my first class on it
"I'll just use the belt sander to add some retroactive precision..."
That's an all time top ten quote, right there.
If you connect the axles together and hook up the outlet from the first piston to the inlet of the second (beware of the phasing, the outlet needs to blow air into the inlet when both of them are open), you will have made a two stage engine. :) Normally the first stage would have a smaller piston though, as the pressure is higher there, but I bet it would work anyways. :)
Thanks for doing this. I bought the plans for this when you first made them many years ago and, after 3 computer changes, only found them (I think I have them all), split up all over the place, on an external hard drive so I had been intending to try to build the engine when my workshop was finished. This video is very useful for the detail I would probably have missed.
Best Wishes, Brendan.
Perhaps it would be interesting to build a wooden Wankel rotary air engine.
Yes, it would be interesting. Let us know when you've done that.
I think it'd be a "Wandel" wooden rotary air engine :P
+altaroffire56 I already built a real one from metal parts.
Videos on my channel.
Godfrey Poon I can't find it
+christopher gonzalez It's just some videos of the engine running, none of actually building it. It's a Mazda 13B, not something special I designed or anything.
Although altaroffire56 has got me thinking... I don't think it would be too difficult to make a wooden one.
now i want a disc sander to add a little bit of retroactive precision!
Like your music man.. Nice to see you here..
So do you come here for inspiration? You make some amazing stuff! It's always great to see amazing UA-camrs on others channels.(also how is the new 90-degree foot pedal coming?)
k2
nice to see you here :)
I came down here to comment on retroactive precision, and was glad to see you here, Martin!
I love the mixture of music and building on your channel and am always hyped for Wintergatan Wednesdays.
Watching your work is like therapy!
bought these plans years ago and built one but gave it away. Seeing it again ( now with no questions as to how to build it) I kinda want to build another. Great video
We have a video on making a graphite lubricating wax that might work well for this.
Keep up the great work mate!
One of the best videos yet. Matthias is the man!
"Retroactive precision"... that's such a good name for a new channel... somebody take it and run with it! The irony is that there is such precision in this engine apparatus already, and inherently in all of Matthias's work.
"Retroactive Precision" May be my favorite phrase in recent history
"Retroactive precision" ...love it
You're a genius, I really enjoy watching your videos after having a stressful day.
Unbelievable, good job. Your a born inventor/machinist, I can tell your a survivor, GOD bless and take care son.
"Retroactive precision" That phrase is definitely going into my lexicon.
that's an awesome phrase: Retroactive Precision
thumbs up!
What a cute project. Not sure what it is used for, but it works great. I am also amazed ALL your tools work a LOT faster than mine do.
This guy is all about perfection on whatever he builds.
Retroactive Precision is my new favourite phrase.
how do you sleep at night knowing you've left all those rough uneven chisel cuts on the inside?
kezzaman idk
YES
kezzaman I was thinking that too, wouldn't it create turbulence and make it less efficient
kezzaman OCD
He doesn’t sleep he makes videos 24/7
Very entertaining Matthias, I've always liked watching things being built,
the speeded up bits make the film especially funny and it's all nicely explained too. Thanks.
Wow this is incredible. I am fascinated with mechanical engineering. Thank you for the video.
I was really hoping you would swap that flywheel for a circular saw blade. Air powered mini table saw!
Can you make a really small working band saw? Like a desktop model? About a foot tall? I think that would look really cool, and a nice conversation piece.
see my recent video about bandsaws bigger is better
Not only does Matt make great videos, but his replies are pure gold
I like these kinds of projects. I'm just always amazed by the amount of tools (powered or not) you need to actually make something like this. Not really something a hobbyist can easily make.
Fabulous, even if retrospective precision was necessary.
12:48: Stupid entropy; you were close to creating a perpetual motion machine!
BRB, going to file a complaint with entropy's manager.
What a fun build! I really like these types of projects. It would be neat to incorporate this into a marble machine build. Great video!
And my favorite quote: "I'm just going to do some retroactive precision here" 👍😄
Wow! Nice work and even better videography. You shrunk the tedium right out, leaving just the good for our impatient brains. Bravo!
"Retroactive Precision!"
Modern translations = Current day inaccuracies/modern day imperfections?
The RPM is over 9000!
That comment gave me cancer
Wow, that's some really super precise wood working.
this really helps make me understand the basic process of engines and how they're sort of made
Hi. What kind of plywood is that and where do you get it? (I live nearby.)
"Retroactive precision." lol
CanadianBushman Baltic birch plywood, you can get it at Home Depot
Thanks. Visited a GREAT store today with fantastic service that had it: exotic-woods.com/
Bauplan bitte!
2:33 did anyone else notice he tapped rose holes to the Mario theme song
i did not notice that till i saw this comment
DomesticatedWind OMG yes!!
Love the detail work you do Matthias !!!
I like your use of retroactive precision. It's just like the retroactive QA me and my coworkers in the SW service department performs.
Would some wax-paper help with the friction and sealing of the inlet-slider?
possibly. But how would you glue that on? Paste wax would probably be better.
Quite some time that i last used wax-paper, but i used some in small boat - a bit of sanding and it stuck to wood glue.
But... no idea what wax-paper or what glue it was ^^,
But currently no space for tinkering to test it.
Mathias, does Big Print program work with Windows 10? Also, what printer can you recommend to use with Big Print?
Marcus Allen Yes it does. I used it to print a pattern just last week. No problems. My printer is a HP inkjet. I have also used an Epson. Why are you concerned about the printer?
Fold it over the sides then staple it.
I wonder how long it will take you to get to 1M subscribers.
five months
I say 4 and 4 quarters.
2 months later and theres only 80 left!
Awesome, Mr. Wandel! I love videos like this that show your creativity and woodworking genius!
This guy is like the mad scientist of woodworking!
"I'll use the belt sander to add some retroactive precision"
I could basically build a power hammer like that, right ? 😂😂
Yep! And being it would float with a little creative wording you could patent the first floating power hammer.
It is unreasonably satisfying to watch the drill press at high speed.
Great job on building the engine and also making the video. I've made steam piston engines and steam turbines I designed myself, so I put a few videos on youtube explaining my art works but wow what a difference, this one you made is way more fun to watch, I could learn something. Thanks again Sir.
Wooden air engine mouse trap video in the works? If not....well it should be.
On 3:37 it looks like a blooper from a Bomberman NES Game. I mean it.
I build steam (air) engines and I know how to cut out SEVERAL steps in your construction process.
You have inspired me to make this and I will post a "build" video of my own for you to watch.
I will take it one step further and make a wooden piston engine that generates house current (or dc) so folks can see how easily they too could make their own - like for an emergency when the grid takes a timeout.
Always fun and interesting to see the builds you make. incredible precision with the tools, and your creativity to build homemade tools and other items are a lesson for me to do new things in the future. Wish you and your family a nice weekend. Best wishes from Jan in Norway
Awesome machine! It would be nice if you made a tool that takes it's power from that engine. Perhaps a scroll saw?
I use the wood to cut the wood
I love engines and i love wood projects. What a fantastic idea, thank you VERY much for sharing your creation.
Hello sir,
Excellent job! I have been building different types of electric motors for a little while now. You were able to attain pretty tight tolerances using wood, well done! Love the video and thank you for sharing.
Thank you sir!
Why did the silly Dutch mess around with those windmills ?
+Big Fat Tony's Cause we are silly people. And because we get lots of that free energy on a regular basis, of course.
Maybe because those silly Dutch didn't have modern day tools when they created their own feats of genius
Pause at 3:34 - the wood looks like a face
THE WOODEN AIR ENGINE BUILD IS THE COOLEST THING IVE EVER SEEN. IM INTRIGUED AS WELL AS INSPIRED...
You're a machinist at heart Matthias, admit it!
It's great! It's magic! Russian say: "He has hands of gold."
Can I borrow that for about 20minutes to hold up next to my crazy liberal friend's head? Thanks!
I think we need to hook up one end to a social activist, the other end to a vocal conservative. and then we'll see who's better.
HAHAHAHA!!! The only problem with tsnorquist's idea is that the pump is made out of wood. I'd be afraid of it catching fire will all that hot air coming out of his friend's head.
Well, the psychiatric ward is full of crazy conservatives, you'll be amaze to see how easily they turn into fascist, and then want to get rid of any minority. Does that ring a bell?
Because of what?
They remind you of the Gestapo? And you're on the internet? Ok grandpa.
Matthias, thank you for this video! It's very interesting and I very appreciate your working!
It's a perfect air blow to-and-fro combination of piston & shaft mechanism.
Brilliant. Love it. The water proof varnish so you can add oil is a great trick that i will definitely use
Retroactive Precision that sums it up nicely.
Great Project fun video Thanks for Sharing
Looks like the sort of thing I could make with my grandchildren. Now all I need is grandchildren. Thanks Mathias.
Very cool shop, great working ideas and build. Thanks for showing.
Another display of genius.
Thank you for the excellent craftsmanship.
Wonderful build. Good breathing excercise
A Master of Grand Masters at woodworking for sure.
Build videos are so satisfying.
That is a very cool piece of machinery you created.
You have a nice bunch of tools and talent for using them , good video
"retroactive precision" best thing I've heard all day.
Very nice construction work and excellent video production too. Thanks for posting the video.
LOVE YOUR VIDS! My next project is a valve for two wet/dry vacuum cleaners which will have them sucking in parallel when at high flow and in series when at low flow, for example when cleaning carpet, during low flow high suction is needed, it will need a simple piston actuator using a tin can.
"Retroactive precision"...love it!
Very neat build, Matthias.
Muito bem feito. Inclusive o vídeo. GENIAL. From Brazil
lots of good tips, can't wait to start mine. Thanks for posting
For what you do manually i would use my CNC. Your skill is amazing to watch.
Your skills give me chills.
I really like watching your videos. Congratulations
(Brasil - Paraná)
Mr. Wandel that is just awesome, tnx for sharing it!!!
