Next, 3d print a copy of the piston, and then use it to mold and cast an aluminum version from pop cans, and see how long that lasts
This is actually a good idea they need to do this or even other people try this out it
I was about to type that, but then I thought about how rough the piston would be so they would need to turn it on a lathe or try using a drill press and doing some ghetto cutting on it to ensure it is perfectly round.
They need to do this
@@jonWilk8156 I think you meant to reply to the other guy
Garage 54 has done it before, you can check it out
Lol imagine getting a running unit on Craigslist and the damn piston is plastic 😂
lol The late night Craigslist sale ... I can only run it few seconds or I'll get a fine from the HOA. SOLD! lol
i mean a chinees piston is problably cheaper then having a 3rd printer and buying the materials. (even if you have a 3d machine)
It'd definitely be a epic April fools joke on a buddy 😂
New fear unlocked
@@fordwrecker1Hey Billy Bob, were going to Glamis for the whole week, you can use my old quad...it's got a fresh top end!
As a retired motorcycle technician and machinist rebuilding many 2 stroke and 4 stroke engines including drag bikes, this was pretty cool. I definitely didn't expect the 3D carbon fiber piston to last that long.
I wonder if it would be strong enough for boost if it would last ten seconds or less got me brain ticking on that one
@@richardschafer1911 Or even a turbo or supercharged.
Same here..I'm a retired motorcycle mechanic of 38years.😊
@@JeffreyPerrault-hk6xe cool! I started at a Kawasaki & BMW dealer in south Florida on May 13, 1979 as a bike assembler and picking up and delivering bikes. In 1985 I started working at a motorcycle machine shop working on street, dirt and ATV's and building drag bikes. 99° were Japanese bikes.
What about carbon-carbon? It’s used on (expensive) brakes.
Ideas-
1. more rings
2. move the rings lower
3. paint the piston with heat resistant paint
4. keep makes these great vids!!!
paint the piston? not gonna work
@@pancake5830 Ever heard of ceramic coating on pistons?
wont work, the rings are a failure point. its metal with heat the piston and causer it to weaken. im interested in seeing actually cf piston
Spiral wound CF piston with ceramic crown. Rings run in the ceramic.
Glad to see Im not the only one putting 3d printed parts where they shouldn’t belong, Great video!
Honestly, TPU is absolutely insane. You can put that in a lot of places instead of metal as long as TPU doesn't get hot.
Hey Camden, your printed engine is awesome! I watched those vids when they were released. That was part of the reason I chose this engine, just to be different
Hello Camden, I love your videos
you sir are a pioneer.
@@iniqyInstead of metal? Are you sure you're talking about the right plastic? TPU is soft and bendy as shit.
This is why I started watching you guys. The excitement and the comradery of friends doing fun stuff together. No destroying $30,000 machines or smashing electric cars.
Electric cars are a$$
@@countryboydragonboy7561❤
They got me
dang i just remembered "BUBBA's Honda Drop" bubba's is a big harley biker bar in milwaulkee wisconsin ..and once a year you buy one ticket to get in and every thing else is free like beer buckets and two refrigerated beer trucks with taps on both sides ..we got a huey helicopter lifting little honda cars 500 feet into the sky only to be cut loose falling to their death every time after time ..as they tumble through the sky some land on all four wheels that instantly fly off on contact with earth causing the bodies of the poor little honda's to become flat as a pancake
Makes me wish I had friends.
2 Stroke stuffing is one of my favourite channels, so much patience and perseverance. I can almost smell the BP Racing mix two stroke smell from my youth.
Great video! Now you need to print the lower half of the piston that sustained no damage and thread on a CNC’d aluminum head, see how long that lasts…
Guys if you have other shops do this as well. You can start a plastic piston drag race. Meth, water injection whatever. The stress of winning before meltdown would be through the roof.
There's plenty enough meth at our local dragway already....
This would be sweet.
@EnkiMMXII that's methed up.
Pipe down now, yall quit methin' around.. ya hear?
sadly plastic pistons wouldn't work on nitromethane because of how quickly it would dissolve the piston interesting thought though considering it would solve the melting issue
That's awesome! You should look into getting another carbon fiber printed piston ceramic coated, so it will reflect and take the heat!
Make it like a big Truck Diesel, small steel top with ring slots and carbon skirts.
Ya, I was just thinking that myself as watching this. it would probably take more heat if you had a ceramic top or if it was electro-coated with a metal shell.
as a 3d printer myself, this was great to see, subscribed =)
I cant believe it i was screaming with you guys am hype right now love this type of videos buddys inventing stuff in the shop is awesome
3D printed Sprocket… See how long that lasts.
3d rims :)
@@reggiexp69 I'm down but I'd need a filament sponsor for that lol
@@Steve-sxsblogparts i could be a fun video
yeah the material for 3d print aint cheap
@@Steve-sxsblogparts like I said earlier, 3d print a piston and then sand cast it with aluminum cans. A little lathe work, and see how long it lasts.
Next thought. Cheap quad challenge but anything broken must be replaced by the 3d printer lol
You need to try with I high temp fillament ( pek, or peek) I bet they last a lot longer
This is my FIRST time seeing yall's content and it was nothing short of EXCELLENCE. New sub earned. Love the content!
2stroke stuffing is another great channel 👍🏻
I'm enjoying this video so far thanks guys
2strokestuffing is a genius
And the nicest, most patient dude on the internet
lol that carbon fiber piston and the fact that the wheeler ran for 1:22 is one of the coolest things I’ve seen out of an ATV 😂 Great job Steve
I know I don’t wanna hear anything about cheap pistons anymore 😂😂
This was so cool and funny at the same time that I subscribed! Looking forward to more crazy stuff from you guys!
That’s awesome! Good to see boys still experimenting, we need more curious minds. Glad to see you guys exploring and enjoying yourselves.
This is one of my all time favorite videos of yours, please do more experiment videos this is sick! Also, completely blew my mind how long it lasted!
It’s like life has been breathed back into the channels. Love to see it
If it was Leo's quad it'd be titanium piston and a fresh rear for his razor but nobody else would know........😂
and in somebody else's name to avoid debt collectors apparently.
@@vel87x oooffffffff
Says the brokie who has a broke house. Lets see your trailer trash uploaded too your channel.
Amazing you guys! It actually worked. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. Cheers! 👏😊
That was amazing! Great work guys!
Gotta say this is one of my favorite videos in a long time. So organic and not forced. Just friends having fun in the shop. Please consider more videos just like this. Also more crawler content is happily welcomed.
That is a good idea. It would probably last longer if you put a aluminum sleeve on top of the piston from keeping it melting.
Great video gentlemen. Worth every moment of time.
Man this had to be 1 of the wildest & craziest ideas I have ever seen...good work fellas. Loved the video. I will be subscribing.
I had an evil thought 😂 if you have a junk engine, just print a new piston and sell it fast 🤣
That would be more expensive and time consuming than throwing in a normal aluminum piston
@@taylorfielding5090 oh I know, it was a joke
people have made wooden pistons for that reason in the past!
Now is the best time to delete this nonsense
-Ooh I can smell the piston!
Is never a good phrase to hear
That was awesome guys was worth all those hours working on it thanks and keep it coming lads
That was truly awesome to see. I like 3d printing myself and if you got the imagination and determination you can attempt to do so much.
Keep more 3D printed experiments coming!
This, boys. This is it. Your pivot- your direction
This is such a nice experiment you are doing, I think every technician who works with combustion engines is interested in the result, but does not have the time, tools and possibilities. great job!!
I am aircraft engine technician for KLM.
This is so fkn cool... well done, Steve! 🤘🏾
ok i like this content
"I wish you guys could smell this cylinder"
quote of the year
someone is going to take this and keep improving to it work's same or better. you have provided the prof of concept that is has the potential
This is an awesome test of the pc carbon fiber, performed better than I expected!
Really wishing you guys tons of success. Yall are such a genuine group of dudes and it would be awesome to see you guys thrive after all the bullshit lately.
Thats the best that polaris has ever ran lmao
Holy Crap! That was awesome! First thing that comes to mind is that Integza has a 3D printer that will print ceramic-infused parts... I can't remember if it's resin bath or filament, but either way, he's actually 3D printed rocket nozzles with it. I would think that would be a helluva starting place for possibly 3D printing carbon fiber-infused ceramic pistons!!! I smell a collab... :D
That's goddamned amazing that it actually started much less ran for a short bit.. It's nuts that a plastic piston would work, but insane that a 3D printed one does, with layer separation issues being a nature of the manufacturing process and all.
With PAHT-CF it should have run even longer. 194c temperature resistance instead of 100c and PC gets weaker with added CF on high temps.
3D printed muffler up next 😂
I’m really impressed we’re doing something out of composite/plastic!!!! f****** COOL! 🤙
That was hilarious! Great content!! 😂
Wow, that was truly amazing, I am literally amazed right now... I expected maybe a few pings or a second or two of rough idle at best, but seeing it go at full power is absolutely crazy!
Connecting rod next ?
3d printed chain 😂
When you weighed it I was hoping you'd get the crank shaved for balance but I guess it'll handle it long enough to have a laugh... holy... you're kidding... THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!
5 Jahre und es wird nur so gemacht!
Mega geiles Video!!!
run it on methanol
That's a good idea!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!
God bless American idiots
I am amazed that you guys got that far before it ceased very cool video 👍🏼👍🏼
This was possibly the best CZcams video I’ve ever seen you guys are awesome. I gotta try that with my 3-D printer only I’m gonna make an intake manifold for my Porsche.
Awesome project guys. Love the new Qidi printers
Enjoyed this immensely, fellas pissing around😂 cant beat it
well in the 80's Honda had made race parts by using plastic parts coated in metal ceramics coatings
if you could add something similar, you probably have piston that could last a decent amount of time
there are also 3d filaments that post printing the item goes into an oven of sorts to burn off the carrige plastic and fuse the sintering materials
That earned you a sub and a like, hell we'll toss in a comment too! Awesome Vid, AND project! 👍
17:54 Certified “hell yeah moment”
great vid, 2stroke stuffing is a top bloke as well
Just got my Qidi x Max 3 printer about 3 weeks ago. So far, loving it. Just need to dial in the settings for different types of filament.
Love this stuff wicked!
Very cool experiment guys. Fun to watch. 👌
No bad language. I'm impressed !!
Congratulations 🎊, everyone. This was.... SO COOL! 😎🤘🍻
We had one of those quads years ago, had a blast on it!
Such a great video 👍🏻 I was wondering about this 😂
That was amazing to watch though!
Damn!
Being a fellow 3d printer owner that lasted far longer than I expected. Makes me want to try these harder filaments now lol. 3d printed parts for the udr lol.
Well done, great experiment!!!
Friggin lived this one boys starting to feel like home again
Heh Heh, I certainly did not think it would last more than 5 - 10 seconds! Great job!
Epic! That was sooo coool.
This is actually a good way to do budget drag racing. I bet if you ran a mixture of methonal/nitromethane it would do 70mph easy. Colder fuels would help alot, like methonal. Imagine going to the track making a pass then yanking heads and replacing the pistons.. be cool if you could make a rod strong enough to hold for one pass also
I watched it all and it was fun !
i figured it would run for about 5 seconds. Impressive!!!!
You guys seem unpretentious and pretty chill for YTers. Rare these days
Keep putting 3D printed parts where they shouldn’t & maybe you’ll find somewhere they should! Love the vid
that's the most entertaining thing I've watched all week 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow that was super awesome 110%
The dude using the 3d printer is a genius
This did way better than I would habe expected.
That legit just got y’all a follow from me! Bro has skills with that 3d printer! So hear me out though, what about a 3d printed turbo?! I just know he can pull that off🙌. Great job fellas
These guys are way on it ..! 🤨👍🏻
All the info will add up..eventually .
That was pretty cool ... glad you tried that!
Subscribing for Steve!!!! let him do all the shit he wants
That was seriously impressive by any 3D printing standards! 😉👍
I saw a guy 3D print gaskets from TPU. Great test. Thanks for sharing.
Omg. Fooled me. Great video.
You should print another and put a metal plate on top with some thermal paste in between to see if it can last longer this was trully amazing!
Can’t lie the bloopers was funny I wasn’t expecting it lmao sxs blog has 2 channels? I didn’t know that
I think that y'all should try the carbon fiber piston again but only with a steel plate on top, pretty much design a rebuildable piston with 4 machine screws in the top going down into the piston. I also believe that if you used Teflon to coat the piston, it might help with heat resistance.
Three men with nothing better to do. And look what happens. Well I enjoyed the video, excellent entertainment. Thanks guys for that bit of fun. 😊
Wow! That lasted about 1:20 longer than I expected it to!
From my experience with FDM printer, it could be a good idea to add a thin layer of resin to make sure it is sealed and it might also make it last longer as well. Great video
fun video, thanks, and i watch 2strokestuffing too.
Funny!
Good Research .
Gotta keep checking this idea out more
