This is a thing of beauty.
Hand-made/machined; push rods and all!

Yeah, I watched the whole thing, too.
Wonder if he could make one a little bigger. Maybe the size that could fit in a Buddy......

Seen the V-12 a couple of weeks ago on Wimp.com,it always amazes and confuses me how a human can be born with the genetic make-up to do these things.

Another work of Art I ran across is the all glass steam engine.Although not as complex as the V-12 engine,it never the less is another awesome piece.

We have a model engine club here in the SF Bay Area. The engines these guys build are simply amazing and to hear them run is a treat. I've attended some of their meetings as a guest and thought about joining, but the money required to buy the machinery required to make these things are way beyond my meager income. Check out their website for pictures of some of the member's engines. Also be sure to check some of the links.

Oh yes, some of them use very small sparkplugs.:)

Saw the V12 on Gizmag. Pretty impressive.
