  • In this video I show you how I made a four cylinder pressed up crankshaft with a 90 degree 1 - 4 - 2 - 3 firing interval. This crankshaft is for my 550cc four cylinder engine that is based on the Kawasaki S1 250 triple engine. Tracey bakes some Christmas cup cakes and our friendly squirrel pays a visit at the end. My old automaton "Charlie Weaver" keeps an obligatory eye on me in between tipples. Hope you enjoy the video
    regards
    Allen

    I wonder if Tracy is secretly making a 4 cylinder mixer?

    There is literally nothing on terrestrial TV I would rather watch than Allens videos. Their whole structure and content, for me, is spot on; it's like 70s programming where things were allowed to be a bit quirky and were just better for it. Never stop Allen!

    I love that you include Tracy and her “shop” work. You are an inspiration Alan, it’s amazing what you can do in your little shop. Thank you.

    Watching this fills me with a deep sense of joy and wellbeing. The way she handles that food processor is amazing! 😊👍🏻

    It never ceases to amaze me how you re-engineer and then build engines/motorcycles using comparatively simple equipment with such precision, Allen!

    Dead heat between Tracey’s precision in the kitchen and Allen’s precision in the workshop.

  • @ethanangel1563

    Uhm, could we get a channel that's Tracy explaining her baking and she just occasionally visits to bring you treats in the garage?

    In Allen's space, even cupcakes appear to go through an engineering process. You just know each and every individual cupcake is 'within spec'. Thanks AM - and T - for yet another marvellous video.

    Super video as usual, Allen. Anyone who conjures a 4-cyl K engine from two old 3-cyls will always want more cherries in their cup cakes! Always. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work.

    Allen explains everything so thoroughly feels like you are in the workshop with him one thing he has never explained is how he keeps so trim with all those cup cakes around the place,great video

    Your work in your home garage and shed put many "professional" engine builders to shame. You are building what the factors should have built. Looking forward to your next video. Those cupcakes look great !

    Exceptional Engineering, Tracey's Christmas Cupcakes, a love for marzipan, Charlie Weaver and an Easter Egg of the Swiss Army Knife on your workbench! But no need for the Barbecue for the assembly of the crankshaft. Truly an Engineering Genius. Thank you, Allen. 👍🔧🔩

    Just that clip that was "easy to remove with a couple of screwdrivers" would have probably kept me busy for a couple of hours. Wish I could be there and watch over your shoulder - and learn from you mate. You are a genius.

    I wish my 'careers advice' covered mechanical engineering at school, some 37 years ago. Good on you Allen, I'm sure you're an ispiration to todays youngsters.

    What a guy .. talent and old school engineering in a shed.. these vids are like therapy

    "It's a nice tight fit, and it grips really well. That's how it should be. Not all loose and floppy like the old ones" 😂🍻 Loved the video, a pleasure to watch!

    The precision, knowledge and skills are second to none. Tracy is an amazing cook. Allen's not too bad aswell!!! 👌🇦🇺👍🇦🇺

    Here’s me expecting to see turning and welding and grinding. No you just push on another one. That’s very clever fore thought in the initial design stages. Nice 👍🏼
