    A great presentation, Mr Hansen. Rudolf Diesel would have been fascinated by the intricacy, impressed by the reliability of your tiny engine and flattered that his name is still in widespread use. Your work is reminiscent of some of the project plans which were once printed in Popular Mechanics magazine. Col, NZ.

    Making such an engine is of course a wonderful thing to do, but devising and testing the parts makes it even more interesting.
    You really need to know how engines work properly and that is an extensive hobby in itself.
    Congratulations !

      Find Hansen I've always loved your engines and I've always wanted one. the question is would you be willing to sell one or "make to order" if so how much would you be asking price wise, I know your engines are free Lance design and are totally unique so I'm not wanting to rip you off with being cheeky.

Unfortunately I think we live in a "I want" society today have some have no respect for your skills and patience to work out a problem, I hope you sent the "I want" person off with a flea in his ear! (how that will translate to Danish will be a surprise.)
    Many thanks again.

    Before UA-cam, I would just kind of assume it wouldn't be possible to build a small working engine like this, other than the type of engine used on RC airplanes and RC cars... but I love that there is someone out here like Find, making these absolutely amazing engines. I haven't seen anything close to this in terms of the quality and attention to detail. True masterpieces, I love your work 👍 Hello & Happy New Year from Rhode Island, US :)

  • @jandoerlidoe3412
    @jandoerlidoe3412 2 роки тому +1

    Impressive and amazing workmanship.... I see you use a solid injection system, meaning airless injection. Rudolph's Diesel engine did employ a air blast injection system, the two stage compressor being driven from the engine crosshead. Amazing that your injection pump is strong enough to generate the high injection pressure, making a plunger pump capable of this is already a extraordinary feat....
    Your engine is a mechanical jewel and a testimony to your technical prowess, patience and perseverance.
    The amount of work, designing, building prototypes, testing, adjusting & refining must have been paramount....

    Hi Find, another beautiful engine. I have been admiring your work for a while but what I had thought to be true, was not so. I didn't think I could admire your ability any more than I already had, but today’s video proved that to be wrong. I had assumed that your A frame engines were made from castings. To learn that you made each individual piece from stock bar and solder silvered them together blew my mind. The finish that you have achieved is outstanding. I have the engineering skills to machine such an engine but not the knowledge to design which leaves me in awe of your abilities. Your engines run so smooth it is a beautiful sight to behold. I fully understand why you do not produce drawings to be honest. It is a shame that this knowledge is not passed on, but you would indeed be inundated with question after question, and it would probably ruin your whole experience. Thank you for another wonderful engine.

    You Sir are a true engineer and your engines are a work of art.
    There are some people who have watched this that have no idea of the work involved in making something like this. The designing, making, testing of every component is amazing. A friend of mine is rebuilding a full size steam locomotive and I imagined machining all those components needed from scratch is a monumental task until I watched you do it in miniature. Your eyesight and tweezer skills are on another level, I have trouble finding a 10mm nut I've dropped never mind on that size you use and have just made.
    Don't worry about those who get nasty because you won't show them how you worked something out like your injector. You took the time and effort to solve the problem I suggest thy do the same.
