Sorry for offtopic, I want to share,

Some Machining related channels on youtube:

this old tony, Chronova engineering, cylo's garage, inheritance machining, breaking taps, blondie hacks, tarkka, dan gelbert, Jonesey Makes, Eric(with a K), Clough42, Alec steele, NBR Works, Not An engineer, Stefan Gotteswinter, oxtoolco, ROBRENZ, MrCrispin, Clickspring, Artisan Makes, MH Anything, Jellyfish machine,Maker B,

And also there is great course on precision engineering by Alex slocum:

Have to recommend TryAlly. He makes it look easy and straightforward. It's not.

Thank you for the Alex Slocum link. I was aware of a lot of those other machinist channels but the engineering course is new to me. This looks incredible. Alex is a fantastic teacher!



Thank you!


Some Model Engineering related resources:

1. Engineering drawings of small model engines used for model aircrafts. They are designed for manufacturing and working, not not like showcase item. We can actually build them.

2. https://modelenginenews.org/midge/index.html


I still have a Cox .049 engine in the basement somewhere.


Used to see adverts for those in magazines and even (iirc) comic books


Of course that's .049 cubic inches (~ 0.82 cc), huge compared to the one in the article.


I also had an .020 engine, but it never ran very well, and I don't know what happened to it.

I had a lot of fun designing my own airplanes and flying them with the .049. Modern electric airplanes are too easy.


Outerzone is a great site for (mostly vintage) model aircraft plans.

Cut my fingers up many times as a kid trying to start Cox model airplane engines…

Check out this video on small rotor design , it is beautiful

I’ll add Pask Makes to that list. Not specifically machining, but he does do some work with a mill.

Also, Uri Tuchmann, who is way more fun and much weirder than a lot of machinists.
