Amazing miniature engine!
http://www.craftsmanshipmuseum.com/Tomlinson.htm
This guy's a retired engineer who taught himself CNC and built this miniature version of a Napier Deltic 18-cylinder engine. Simply amazing what some of these home machinists come up with.

What's more amazing about that Napier is he plans to run it, potentially as high as 20,000 rpms!
