          After putting her aside I did another engine today. This is a a little crankless engine.

              Great work, Dave, those machines were state of the art when they were invented. I have attached an image of a Quantum computer. Therefore state of the art today. When I say computer 99.9% of it is just for cooling the chip is about50x50x10mm. Here is a link to the model

                      Funny guys!

                      And here's another one. A little 4-cylinder oscillating engine. As usual, all base level components are solids.

                                        @Dave-R I thought I forgot to take my 3D glasses off when looking at this last image. Fantastic 👏

                                        P.S. I meant to say my X-ray glasses. The ones I bought from the ad in the back of my comic book. 😬

                                            Another little steam engine. The flywheel has a diameter of 80mm. Nothing but SketchUp.
