Amazing V-12 Four Stroke Paper Engine
Wednesday, June 11, 2008
This amazing V-12 four stroke origami is a pure genius at work. I used to pride myself on my Paper Mache skills back in secondary school those years. But nothing beats my imagination as the level of skill and finesse put together to achieve this awesome feat of art and engineering skills.
Built by a self-employed Montreal man named Yee, the Origami V-12 is a paper engine that pumps just like real engines (with the help of electrical wires, a resistor, a motor and a battery holder). It looks complicated because it is: One V-12 engine consists of 195 sheets of fine-printed patterns. From those sets, 1,978 pieces are used in total. And it only weighs 3.2 lbs when finished. This makes your 1,000-piece puzzle look like a piece of cake.
Read the full details here and see whether you can take up the challenge of building your own paper engine. The Origami V-12 engine is available for online for $110
