We are not worthy... I could never build this but... five questions; 1. How many pieces? 2. How long did it take to build? 3. Are the plans availible? 4. How much would it cost, if sourced from 'Build A Brick'? & 5. How long did it take to plan?

[@legolaus1]

1.) i´m actually not sure, but i think about 10k parts, 2.) ten weeks development, 3.) i hope at january ´23www.youtube.com/@legolaus1/videos, 4.) With original Lego parts, i think 2,5k €, 5.) don´t know 🙂

[@TheJB84]

Maybe build a real engine. Understand tolerances, compression ratios, ring gaps, fuel/air rarios, and everything else required.

[@legolaus1]

@@TheJB84 i don't need to know that to build a purely visual model. i have some knowledge of electronics and software development. so everyone has their own field 🙂

[@TheSilverShadow17]

Considering that there's billions and billions of Legos that have been made over the years, it's highly unlikely that the Lego supply will ever run out.

[@TheSilverShadow17]

@@MidwestFarmToys Only 87 pieces? Damn. Wouldn't it be close to around a few thousand or something like that?

Stunning design and attention to detail. And the commitment to build a transport rig, a lifting system, shoring, frames for transport and standing.... just incredible.

[@stevenpittman1807]

How does somebody get designs like this to build. In other words, how could I get into this type of Lego building? I've been into Technic Lego building for years. But now, I want to go further.

this stuff runs on battery???

[@mephInc]

​@@stevenpittman1807 A lot of people use software to develop their design before building it. There's a couple days to do it.

A thing of beauty! I absolutely love how Lego can be used to demonstrate and model the concepts from the real mechanical engineering world.

If you think this isn't cool then you just don't understand what it means to perfectly merge childhood fun with industrial mechanical knowledge. Awesome stuff.

[@volksdude1970]

Dude! Not only did he make a detailed ship's engine, but he goes through the effort of loading it onto a trailer just like how they do the real thing?!? Amazing! And did anybody else notice that the generator engine had FUNCTIONAL EXHAUST "FLAPPERS" that matched RPM?!? The faster the engine ran, the higher they went! WHAT IS THAT MAGIC?!? That's amazing! I would love to see a breakdown of how that amazing masterpiece works!

[@rigididiot]

Too bad those exhaust flapper thingies are not to be found on the real thing, just like the "rocker arm like" assemblies...

[@77BenWells]

Yeah, that was just too cool!

[@BryBurger]

Curious, doesn't appear to be required but would strategically placed lubrication be helpful to the engine's moving parts for longevity? 🤔

[@volksdude1970]

@@BryBurger While in a full sized, real running motor, you must definitely would need oil to run it, this doesn't look like it would benefit much from oiling. This looks to be more of a display model that isn't really supposed to pull much weight, nor run at the same high RPMs or for any extended period of time as what the real deal does.

Stoked for the day we figure out how to make a 'mostly' Lego gas or diesel engine. Not just in look, but actually using propellants. Other than actually having compression the heat is gonna be the hardest thing to tackle.

The turbo manifold is wrong. Exhaust gas enters the turbine housing radially and exits axially, the opposite of the compressor side.

[@er0030]

wow! That is awesome!!

[@robertviragh6527]

What amazes me about this build is that it doesn't come flying apart at any speed. While it could power up to speeds that make me wish I were wearing safety goggles, even across KZbin, nothing went flying where it shouldn't, there were no leaks or pneumatic popping, no bricks flying haphazardly in all directions, it is a machine with so many cylinders that work under conditions that, let's be honest, no Lego designer had in mind. Sometimes I think - why do builders do it? Why come up with something so intricate, so complete, with so many cylinders and intricate parts? I think it goes back to what Lego was born for: to inspire others to create. To bring out the creative spark that makes others sit down and say, yes, I will put this together and really make something today. With so many common, everyday distractions, that is an art that I think I have never seen in any other company. When was the last time you saw anyone play with any toys, any games, any hardware or any software, anything at all quite like this? Only Lego does it or can do it.

[@legolaus1]

You speak from my soul. I had built the engine to see if it would work. It was not easy, but it was fun 🙂

[@YTGhostCensorshipCanSuckMe]

How long can you run it before the plastic melts ?

[@danielboll84]

Wow it's like seeing my own work life.... I'm a trained ship fitter, and has worked on the Sulzer RTA 96c witch this seems to be a model of, it's actually the most powerful engine with almost 8000 HP per cylinder (this I a straight 6, and it goes up to straight 14 witch has tree turbos) When I stopped as a ship fitter I went on to heavy hauling and specialized moving off almost every ting, and to see that close up of that jacking up the engine was spectacular👍🏻👌🏻 Really enjoyed this clip🤩

[@r.j.d3923]

Great! 1 idea for the lifting: maybe if all tubes have equal length the lifting will be more vertical, now the aft jack up has shorter tube so less resistance than the forward tubes, hence the lifting is aft first, the front. So connect fore and aft with same length, split in the middle.

[@legolaus1]

I´m learning 🙂 Thank you

[@rigididiot]

@@legolaus1 As far as I know, the real thing is not jacked up with hydraulics, but hoisted by massive gantry cranes, via an equally huge spreader beam, dividing the forces over dozens of lifting pointsto minimize warping of the engine. Because as huge and massive as they seem, there is an unbelievable amount of flexibility in those engines. Enough, that when the vessel is loaded or empty, is visible in the measurements when you clock the crankshaft, and when running full power, the individual cylinders can be seen moving with the naked eye when you know where and how to look. So jacking one of those engines at only 4 hingepoints won't happen in reality

You did a perfect build. There is nothing to be added or changed. Don’t let others hijack your merit. Bravo!

[@legolaus1]

@@do_happywork Thank you very much 🙂

[@legolaus1]

@@rigididiot You're absolutely right. unfortunately, i didn't have enough parts for more pneumatic cylinders. i didn't want to use a crane because i don't have enough parts for that either, and lego cranes usually can't handle such weights without bending. and there are so many crane videos. i have seen this lifting technique at mammoet, however, they use it to lift rigid loads- so i totally agree with you. it should just be something different than the usual videos. i hope you can forgive me this little deviation. but thank you very much for the positively written critique 🙂
