If you want to build your own engine you can find individual Lego Parts on bricklink.com. To make engines like the ones in the video, you need modified Lego Pneumatic parts. You can buy them here: www.greengeckoworkshop.com/ or modify them yourself. Check out the GreenGeckoWorkshop KZread Channel for modification instructions, or get an engine kit with ready made parts and building instructions. A compressor is required to run these engines. I use a silent Implotex Airbrush compressor: surl.li/gjyvq, but even a bicycle pump with a soda bottle as air tank works well enough for smaller engines.

Something these model engines show really well is how the rotation of an engine isn't constant in it's speed; the crank rotates faster when the crank is at 90degrees to the connecting rod, and slowest when it's perfectly in line with the connecting rod. That's why heavy flywheels are used in a lot of 4 cylinder engines, and why engines with more than 4 cylinders are so smooth.

Not if each piston is offset by 90°.

I tried making lego pneumatic engines when I was much younger, the old single acting cylinders moved much easier and so did the switches although the switches were still too stiff really (also theyre off in the middle). I like the pinched tube idea, Id like to see more of that.

Thank you for inspiring me to build my own model engine!

The 120⁰ for the Inline-3 and V6 was easy (albeit still very clever), but the Inline-5... You made a custom 72⁰ component. And here I was thinking that you couldn't get any more devoted and ground-breaking (other than finding a way to mass-produce and sell Lego sets of these while gaining a decent profit). I am forever impressed.

It’s amazing seeing the I6 engine’s fixing the firing orders, from an unbalanced to a balanced version, solve vibration completely!

I feel like these engines would be a lot cooler with colored smoke and clear tubes so we can kind of see how they work

The production value on your videos seems to have just jumped up considerably, this was really pleasing to just sit and watch (not that they weren’t already) and very interesting as always congrats

I love that I can hear the different engine sounds and compare them to ones I've heard around me out and about, the 135 degree v8 sounded more like a muscle car and the 45 degree v8 more like a truck engine to me. Thanks for making these!

Man what a huge amount of engines you designed for this video! This is exactly why I’m subscribed. Keep it up man, stay safe.

now that you've got an ender 5, you should try to print some shorter crankshaft pieces to get a stroke length shorter than 3 bricks. I would love to see what kind of speed you can get with a shorter stroke length. Those pistons seem to have some decent power; I could imagine maybe a stroke length as low as one brick could work.

Please tell us how you've mastered mechanics and engineering. mention the books or any other source that have had great impact on your journey.

nah i4 be 1-2-3-4 and make it a crossplane

As someone with a love for lego, and a slightly more than casual interest in engines, I really enjoy these videos😊

Hi! I'm vrey happy to see these experiments with the air engines! Especially the firing order one! Question: Do you plan on using flat-plane crankshafts for your four/eight cylinder engines? You're using cross-plane ones now (90 degrees between each pin, while flat would be 180, basically the two outer pins being on one side, the two inner ones on the other). Flat-plane cranks are used in most 4 and 8 cylinder engines, the exceptions being some sports bikes, which still use cross-plane.

1:54 sounds like a VW TDI engine😂

@ThomasthetankengineE2

Ай бұрын

Ya!

I found it really interesting where you changed the valve timing, the firing order etc, i think making a full lego car with a pneumatic engine in and tuning it would be really cool. You could even make a dyno to test rpm

Next try to make an engine out of linear actuators

1:08 sick beat lmao

9:20 I find this but funny because you are using air pressure to make rotational energy to then turn back into air pressure to power the car!

Brick technology starts getting sponsors and not one negative comment about it. I love it, you keep the lego community satisfied with brilliant content and deserve the payroll. Congrats!

Incredible work as always

5:20 notice how it needed a bigger flywheel to start That's how you know power was lost

6:57 1.9 TDI

Question: could you do an experiment in a video to demonstrate the power of these engines compared to traditional Lego electric motors? I understand if the point of this is purely educational but since they're both available as LEGO building/engineering techniques it would be nice to see how these arduously-produced stack up to premade motors (drive sources) in terms of ... torque, I guess?

The best thing in this video is when you show applications for these engines, such as powering the pump! Awesome stuff as always

Also this video is freaking amazing at describing how a engine actually works like for an example I didn’t know that’s why a flywheel exists

I wanna see someone make a steam ship with this type of engine.

I used to build mini garbage compactors out of Lego using those yellow air cylinders. The compactor worked well.

For me, the most impressive thing in the video was the adjustable angle motor! Great idea!

Thank you for sharing your process.

Huge fan of these pneumatic engine videos

Something I’ve always wondered, does the orientation of the pistons matter? Like, does an in-line 6 vs a v6, vs a flat 6 make a difference beyond how compact it is overall, or is there a significant differences impact on torque, reliability, etc? Might make for an interesting video comparing them?

@tacticalidiot175

9 ай бұрын

It indeed does. Inline 6 engines are notoriously more reliable and smoother because of less vibration and wear, flat sixes rev higher for whatever reason and v6s are cheap

3:40 sounds lika a diesel to me)

Yes another video I’ve been waiting for this one I love your videos and there so high quality

Those pneumatic engines are so cool!!! Can you build a V8 muscle car with clutch and gearbox? Kind of like the truck you’ve made but bigger and faster ;) And maybe you can create a pneumatic exhaust system like on the Dodge Challenger Daytona SRT e-muscle concept to give it a badass sound 😏

3D printed lego parts is awesome! I can't even imagine how powerful he will be now

The effort you put into this is astronomical

wow I love it. You should really develop a noise music piece out of these. Please write me if you are interested in performing those things live or if you are willing to share the plans for those machines so we can listen to them on a big soundsystem. I am Leipzig based so hopefully not too far away

car nerd here, love that you made a handful of real engine layouts!

Nice experiments! I noticed that you zip-tied some of the hoses to the t-pieces to prevent them flying off. If this is the case, I would recommend using stepped/grooved t-pieces, since they grab onto the tubes much better and resist popping off at high pressures. Good stuff though!

It's so cool!, it sounds like an actual engine

This is so relaxing & kind of serene the engine sounds & acceleration are good & A1 :D

Awesome inclusion of the turntable. Loved the camera angles and editing.

Underrated youtuber, he’s amazing

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

I'm all bricked up for this air engine videos!

I seem to remember 1-5-3-6-2-4 was the firing order of my dad's 1969 Falcon. it was engraved in the engine block.

Your editing takes this to an entire different level. Well done man. Love it!

That electronic valve control is an interesting concept, it’s almost a hybrid engine

Not gunna lie, at 0:10 I thought it was vibrating rather then it being on a turn table. Keep it up!

YES 3D printing has come into the mix!!!

I love how the cats come by and get all curious. 😸

I cant help but think some of these engines would be really cool in large rc boats

Awesome video! It would be interesting to see a comparison of torque output between 1 and 2 stroke engines, as well as switched vs non-switched valvetrains.

Very, very cool presentation. Clear, understandable and engaging. Thank you.

We need more air-engine content on this channel!

I love how all of the "messing around with lego" type channels have cats who come and investigate the builds. definitely a crossover in demographics going on here.

i cant tell u how i love ur videos so much man amazing and interesting content

These videos are like a holiday every time

What a simple yet brilliant way to level-up the production value with lazy susan! Fun and interesting video once again, keep it up!

Flat\Boxer was most ballanced....Great job!

13:10-13:19 the cat's movement synchronized with the engine noise made me think of some vehicles (particularly old cars) that do that sometimes.

Awesome! Only need some vacuum engines on the channel now!

This is extremely well put together. It explains things very clearly and simply enough that a lot of people would understand. I love practical models like this. Amazing job! Edit: Also has cats. A+

I would love to see different vehicles tested with different varieties of engines. Though probably the only thing that can hold the engine is a large LEGO boat.

7:15 i have a volvo 850 from 95 with an inline 5, and its nice to see those oddball engines configurations get some love

I would like to know more about the reversable air engine. I cant quite get how it works

Bro this is too good

Love it. Next project: pneumatic clock?

You should make a propellor engine for a lego plane with these. Edit: make the plane move with the engine.

my favorite channel because I love legos and engineering

Air engines + lego = 👌⚙️

If this guy was making cars, we’d never have an energy crisis

I didn't know there is a firing order for an engine. I always thought of the incorrect one, i learned something amazing from brick technology again.

i got an idea for your channel! make an engine with a gas pedal with pneumatics - actually do you have an engine that has a variable-controlled RPM or do all the engines have speed controlled by the psi? in any case, have a gas pedal and a clutch pedal that goes to a transmission like at 4:45... it would showcase how one is supposed to drive a manual car by showing the theory of operation in lego form.

The i3 sounds identical to a Deutz F3L912! Great job!

Geeze, every episode is more impressive than the last

i have to say it, you're a genius!!!
