    This guy is really impressive. You could tell how interested they were about how he did all of this.

    With a different camshaft design, you could probably run these on compressed air (for a little while.)

      Now I think if you took each piece and cast it from aluminum or something, you could run it off of some low heat fuels

    This is seriously cool. Just imagine how much you could learn as an engineer or mechanic by taking a course where your ultimate goal would be to literally build an engine. You'd understand the entire process and know what all of the parts do.

    Talented dudes like this need more time/money/resources. He's obviously very clued up, some company needs to get behind him, the results (and furthering the limits of 3D printing) would be incredible!

    @mckbalisong 7 років тому

    I love that someone took the time and effort to do this, I grew up rebuilding chevy 454 and 502 engines for boats, the only thing that I can criticize if the last engine in the video, he has the exhaust coming out of the block, not the heads where it's supposed to be, and the engine is a v8 and there's only 3 exhaust outlets , not 4... don't get me wrong, I have to give this guy credit for doing all of this, it takes a lot of time.

    • @DoctorZisIN
      @DoctorZisIN 7 років тому +15

      There's plenty of money in cure, the problem is that Cancer is a feature, not a bug. Your body can't tell the difference between normal cells and cancer cells. It's evolution's way of keeping human population in check. Looking for a cure for cancer is like looking for a cure for death.

    • @Phoenixflame87
      @Phoenixflame87 7 років тому +18

      People like to use the term "cure for cancer," but cancer is hundreds of diseases. Some forms are curable, others are treatable, but it's extremely difficult to find a catch-all cure because for how many different forms the diseases take.

    • @DoctorZisIN
      @DoctorZisIN 7 років тому +6

      Exactly, plus cancer also has many causes and many symptoms, which often mimic those of other illnesses so it's easily misdiagnosed, and not treated in time.

    • @mr.headcrab31
      @mr.headcrab31 7 років тому +7

      It's not that sponsored videos aren't important, especially with how the
      whole advertiser thing is going as of late, but a whole lot of vids as
      of late have felt really, REALLY fake. Transparency is the key, Fox
      letting Adam have access to the hero spacesuit from The Martian to
      promote the home release was cool, the last two mailbags, on the other
      hand, felt like ads for the prop auction house and the foam sword
      manufacturer disguised badly. Adam's PSAs from the NHTSA were fine, the
      last few Maker spotlights have been pushing it. Maker was always "The
      Amateur doing cool things (IN A CAVE) with a box of scraps." I'm sorry,
      but once you have an "Industrial Division" for your products, you've
      graduated from an Amateur "Maker", to a full blown Manufacturer. Don't get me wrong, as long as the content is fresh and interesting, we'll love it, but some aspects are getting stale. Also, sorry, that turned into a bit of a rant.

    I built two Prusa original Clones and bought the FlashForge Dreamer. So far since I'm a RC pilot and fly a 1938 Super Stearman with a Radial Engine, I have 3d printed a working five cylinder radial engine. They actually print stainless steel and other materials, even biometric strands. Amazing what they are doing. I have to admit that watching it reminds me of several scriptures where God created from the dust into a form, whereas up until now mankind has only been able to whittle material into a form. As a master machinist, this is awesome, and as a model builder just incredible.

    • @jaratt85
      @jaratt85 7 років тому +1

      it's a flathead, it will never be efficient, just cool. Their design isn't used for anything other than lawnmower engines anymore for a reason, they don't make much power and the don't get good economy.. They are just simple and cool to look at. A fully race built Flathead Ford V8 running a big supercharger, fuel injection and methanol typically makes maybe 400hp... you can easily do that with a low compression naturally aspirated 302 these days.

    Sometimes I am amazed at what some people can do on their free time. I really need to step up my game and get making. Currently, I am working on a dual extrusion upgrade on my DIY 3D printer/CNC router. The main problem with 3D printers is they always need an upgrade.

    I have a new design for an engine head that will work with a normal piston bottom end if your interested. Its not patented and can be crowd sourced by you if you want. Maybe we could make some money selling the models. Its a spring less valve head with removes most resistance from the engine and allows for extremely high ROMs and lots of power while being above 80% efficient. It won't be able to be patented once its shown to the public so the big companies won't have any control over it.

    "can't explain how a transmission works, its impossible" I literally had to take a class that had me memorize every part in a transmission, then power flow between each gear and how the different mesh outputs power. its very possible, you just don't know how.

    They are already going 4 rotor style engines based on Mazdas 2 and Three rotor engines. There's another market to be had. I would consider that instead of the Poppet valve head for an overlooked engines that rocked when it go some attention, but could loose a little more refinement. Against, let me know! I've got three designes already in use and ideas for many more!

    I'm so glad Frank was there to chime in. I love Norm but auto stuff is too far out of his wheelhouse. I was waiting for rotaries to be mentioned THE WHOLE VIDEO and thought I was going to be let down, then BOOM Frank threw it out there.

    Since a combustion engine is really "just" an air engine working on the principle of phase change, you wouldn't necessarily need to run it with a combustible fuel. If the materials could handle it, you could use things like dry ice or liquid nitrogen and use their phase change into gas to power it. It's be trickier to get the fuel for it, but it's not going to end up melting the parts or burning things down if people get careless.

      So you're telling me when an internal combustion engine is "working" it isn't running on fuel? Interesting logic there..........

      @KrustyKlown 7 років тому +7

      Let's see someone make a plastic 3D printed gasoline engine that actually runs! ... it's possible .. with the right design and at a VERY low power output (i.e. runs very slow)... keeping part temps really low. Such an engine would have no practical use, but would be a fun project. Something like an occasionally firing "hit miss" type motor. The parts could be made hollow with water cooling channels, imagine a water cooled piston, with water hoses .. feasible at very low rpm.
