Real working engines made from Lego
Asmita | May 31 2008


A bunch of Lego enthusiasts have found a unique and rather novel way to incorporate the plastic building blocks into the main stray of life like never before. By using a lot of cleverly combined Lego blocks, craftsmen have been able to make a ’steam engine’ powered by a vacuum cleaner that can chug out a mean 900 RPM. Of course we don’t entirely expect the innovation to make it to the streets anytime soon, unless someone makes a vacuum-powered Lego car for the dedicated clean freak housewife that is! The second invention is rather more feasible though. It is a fully-functional electronic V8 engine crafted entirely out of Lego Technic pieces built with 5 month of blood, sweat and tears. I sure hope the artist goes on to collaborate with the maker of the Lego Camaro and creates the world’s first road-ready fully-Lego car with this thing in it! Watch the Lego V8 in action after the jump.
