Tacoistas,
*Warning*, this is not about Ham Radio, but it is a bout engineering
achievements nevertheless.
And, since some of you are also mechanically inclined,

OPERATIONAL V-12 ENGINE THAT FITS IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND
This is not CNC technology; this guy made everything at home on his
lathe and drill press. Took 1220 hours (a year and a half?) to make
the 261 pieces.Note the end-loaded crankshaft into the block (like
an Offy), 12 individual cylinder heads, TINY rods and pistons, dual
"underhead" cams with push-rods to rockers in the heads.And, he did
break-in using an electric drill driving the crankshaft! Even if
you're not an engineer, you'll love this!
