Handmade Miniature W-32 Engine

Operating Miniature W-32 Engine

Spanish retiree José Manuel Hermo Barreiro aka ‘Patelo’ spent 2,520 hours designing and matching 850 pieces to make a fully running, miniature W32 engine. The engine itself runs on compressed air, so it isn’t a miniature internal combustion engine, but it is truly an amazing accomplishment.
