Lovely work so far shinpachi!

Thanks again, guys.

Gears.

Bell gear, propeller shat and planetary gears.
Propeller shaft and planetary gears are combined to rotate together.

And with sun gear.
Splines for the crank shaft can be seen.

As a 72 year-old person learning computer rendering person, I simply don't know where to begin in describing how beautiful your work is. What software are you using? And what is the equipment on which your using it. To generate all those rendered images must take a long time unless you have some seriously powerful imaging equipment. Stunning, beautiful work! Now all we have to do is get it all 3D printed and we'd have a scale model working 3350. That would very cool.

Hello Builder 2010 and Thanks for the compliment very much !
It is great to challenge the computer rendering over 70 if you have started it lately.
Please let me pay respects to your ageless spirit.

My software is SHADE ver. 6 (and 15) - a Japanese product.
This can be operated by an ordinary HP Compaq PC (other PCs are OK too, of course) but sometimes frozen when the data volume for rendering exceeds 500MB at a time. This is my headache as one project needs data volume up to 1GB and I have to divide a rendering job into several times. I had no problem in the time of Windows 98 though it took a week to finish a rendering.

I am not thinking the 3D printing at the moment but, yes, interested in it.

Shinpachi-san, you have always amazed me with your CGI - it is always a treat to see your latest renderings!

Modelling the carburetor is still on the way.
Frankly, American design is hard for me to grasp as very artistic.
Well thought.

 

[vikingBerserker]

You talent truly blows me away! I could watch you all day.

Great work so far shinpachi!

To an old 3D drafter, that is breathtaking work.
Can't wait for the whole assembly to turn over, animated,

Thanks Gents for your kind comments and clicks which encourage me very much.

This is a picture I took 7 years ago. Very tough design to copy.

Beautiful, an odd word for describing engine parts but it fits

 

[Shinpachi]

Thanks Geo.
There are no borders for the beautiful products and I always find myself a novice in front of them.
