Can 3 rotor parts function as one rotor? I think it might be missing some components vis-a-vis balance and all that.

Watching endless 20 part building episodes have lead me to this. This is the content I signed up for.

[@TheDCRUAmpact]

This is all so foreign to me, I’m lost..... but I can’t stop watching! I’m fascinated by the rotary motor! Amazing knowledge and dedication. Inspiring to say the least. Mad props and kudos to you all!

Awesome video, so great how we can have a detailed view of how everything goes together with pretty much every step along the way! A great learning tool! Thanks Rob!

[@fixitfixit8759]

Yep you’re right wrong way

[@ethanjones4678]

If it is installed upside down would the pressure from the spring not be the same? How can you tell?

[@cencoast_7.340]

If he’s done so many of them has he been doing it wrong all along I wonder?

[@bunbunson27]

you can install the side spring seal in any way. People install it with the tips pointing up only because it may provide support on the end of the seals, but I have installed it both ways and found no problems. The oil ring spring and the apex spring are the only two springs that must be installed correctly

[@WRXBase]

#Vaseline #whoknew

[@scottjinx]

yeh but people who are thinking about giving it a go still need to have a good amount of engine building knowledge & experience, clearances etc are very important in a rotary engine, all the details matter you can't just throw it together & think it's going to work properly or at all, if you don't really know what you're doing there's a good chance that you will end up with a junk engine & rotaries are now far too rare to be mucking around with, though people who do know what they are doing & are willing to take their time with the build then in that case all good but please rookies these engines are too hard to find these days to ruin hey :)

[@Tkm112093evadell]

*PRO TIP! Mount a can or some sort of container to your engine stand. Keep a set of bolts for every type of engine you work on in there and it also gives you a place to put the pin when out of use. 👍

[@fridonina]

Very satisfying to watch with my morning coffee !

Honestly I have learned so much about rotaries just from your videos. I can confidently speak better about them to anyone.

[@OlderthanIlookyoungerthanIfeel]

Killen it with the outro's as usual .

[@aserta]

You should try knolling before starting an engine rebuild. That way, you'll never forget parts. Before i learnt of this, i'd forget on average 2 3 parts, never once since i started that process. It's neat and somewhat therapeutic too.

[@sirbow2]

I had to look this up. Knolling is basically a fancy way of saying lay out all the parts in order

[@thefunbuns1]

Ahaha i knew rob was gonna be reusing parts but this is extra ghetto, very 3-rotor style i like it

[@robertbloss4409]

Note on the sanding. That metal table surface is not very flat. A cheap flat surface is a thick piece of glass. Another tool you should have is a 4" diameter grinding stone. It looks a lot like a hockey puck, one side is coarse one is fine. MSCdirect pn# 05108402 is a good example of what I am talking about.

Drill and tap a tiny hole in that bolt. Then u can put scothbrite in it and use a set screw to hole it. Makes a nice home made hole polisher. Make a new one for work every so often.

I might be in the minority however I really enjoy these longer videos of building the engine or your other long video where you got the whole car ready for sema.

Question (please roast if wrong) but wouldnt yall want to install the apex seals out of the engine to make sure they dont stick down and cause a massive plume when it runs?
