Amazing world's smallest V12

Three Wheelin'
Holy crap the amount of detail that went in to creating that is just fantastic. The true scale didn't dawn on me until he had the cylinder and con-rod assembly next to his hand and it was smaller than his index finger.

He is a Spanish retired naval mechanic, they interview´d him on the Radio.
The engine runs on compressed air, its a model for educational purposes. But it does have compression and all the parts are functional, just no fuel/emissions.
He repaired and transformed the lathe he uses, and a lot of the work is done by filing the parts like the camshafts.
He has more videos of the build, and other engines here:
