Simplified Model Radial Engine

Hi All,

This is a model 8 cylinder radial engine that i made. It is a very simplified version that is just to show people the mechanics behind how these engines worked (used to be used on old airplanes). Just a cool geometry toy to play with and see how these things used to work.

I printed mine as shown in the videos at 75% as i did not feel like the full size was required. I'm sure this would work from a 50% scale all the way to 150% but i have yet to personally try it.

Print List:
1-radial engine block
8-piston rods
8- piston head
1- piston plate
1- piston plate side 2
1- gear
1-flywheel
1-flywheel side 2
1- top plate
