    Mechanical Porn

    There is a random pic thread, a random car thread, and random music thread...

    I think it's time for a random "badass mechanical shit" thread.



    This vid makes me feel like I'm back in a Mechanisms of Machinery class


    “The film presents a deceptively “open” series of images of gears and pistons that transfer movement from vertical to rotary directions. Musical in its repetitive visual form, it now seems akin to Charles Sheeler’s paintings and photographs of railroad locomotive gears and wheels, a tribute to the machine age.”

    — Robert A. Haller

            To this...





            Just think about the metallurgy involved.

                  Rebuilding the Engine of a Triumph Spitfire

                  UK-based YouTube user nothinghereok bought this used engine off Ebay for his Triumph Spitfire after his own engine suffered a catastrophic failure. He then decided to document the process of rebuilding the engine from stripping its thousands of parts, cleaning them up to completely reassembling the entire thing again. Mind-boggling. Also, a great little surprise at the end.

                      Not your normal porn, and yes I believe this has been posted before, but still. Awesome engineering!
