This pull start, single cylinder, runs on coleman fuel and is lubed by WD-40. A single AA battery powers the miniature ignition circuit, while a rotary valve controls the intake and exhaust. But the real beauty is in the glass cylinder that allows the view to witness the magic of internal combustion. Skip to :40s for action shots.

Yes. Looks really nice too.

This needs to be put in front of a super slow motion camera. Something like a Phantom.

I agree completely. Thanks to my new friend Nerd-Vol I am now convinced the magic of internal combustion is the most amazing thing to see up close.

That is truly a work of art.

I now so badly want to make one of these but an over head cam, inline 6 with glass combustion chambers (like the motor above), glass crank case, glass timing cover,glass valve cover, glass intake, glass exhaust header. I would say I have 80% of the glass working skills and technical knowledge to make the glass parts. However I don't have access to a machine shop or a glass shop for that matter. :'(
