Assembly of a 4-cylinder gasoline engine. Great video!

I also have this as a screensaver. If anyone wants the installation file let me know.

That's sweet! If only it was that simple to put an engine together.

Putting it together is not that hard, it's like playing Lego. But designing the mechinery is an art.

Awesome, looks kind of big to be able to represent my tiny Honda Engine...

Actually, designing is simple but very boring. There are hundreds of people designing parts of the engine. Everyone knows how everything works, but the experts on piston rings probably don't know the intimate details about connecting rods.

This is not the James Watt days when just one dude design and build the same engine.

That's a lot of moving parts! Surely there must be a simpler alternative...

Sweet vid!

Exactly! It's a shame there's only one current model on the market.
