Desktop crank-able motorcycle engine w/ transmission!
hi everybody! i made this awesome model of a 1 cylinder dirt bike styled engine
and transmission. i wanted to make a functional model you can show off on your desk at your house or the office on the left side of the engine there is a disk with a hole you stick your finger into to turn, turning the disk turns the crank shaft and moves the piston up and down, and the crank shaft turns 3 gears that are linked to the transmission gears and finally rotating the sprocket, to liven up the design i made some cosmetic details like a timing chain cove and cam covers and an oil pan also a carberator, along with window on various parts to let you see whats going on when you crank it over! criticism is welcomed also any thoughts on a next model? pics |

I think this is a piece of modelling brilliance, extremely well executed, and very clever.
While mechanical models are not unknown; good and complicated examples such as this one remain reasonably rare. I think this is not only beautiful as a model, it is also beautiful as functioning Art. I wish you every success with your further plans, if you plan more models with a similar them to this. You have designed and built a Masterpiece. Kind and Respectful Regards Ktmkid991, Uyraell.

Very impressive work. I take it that you are not making it available for download?
You can probably sell it via ECardmodels. I would be interested in purchasing a copy.

The price depends on the size of the model. But, I would wager a guess in the $10-$13 range.
