Little flashback to getting the KE70 ready for RWC

Little flashback to getting the KE70 ready for RWC, what a complete drainer.
Anyway, the turbo kit is full steam ahead and I've got so many cool things to show you, lots more about it on my YT channel and got quite a few updates on the way 👀

It's all happening here. The 5k is completely* disassembled and 3D scanning has begun.
This is another one of those projects that has been on my "to do" list for legitimately 10+ years but I just have struggled to get the motivation to start, because it's obviously quite a big project to model it once the scan is done.
But, seeing as I've made the probably overambitious step to attempt a design for a DOHC head for the little Toyota K engine, I probably should have a good model to work from to match the original reverse flow head model I started.

And seeing as I've gone to so much effort already, I wouldn't mind cutting one up.
So if you've got a damaged 3k / 4k / 5k head you're will to donate, please let me know!
"Damaged" because I'm not really into cutting up things that could still be used.

Lemme know! ✌️

Got a few things on the go, as usual, but I'm actually making progress on all of them as well as all of the side quests I've got goin on as well.

Probably comes as no surprise that I never used to finish RPGs, I used to just go off on every possible tangent and then just stop playing.
Except FFX. and vii, obviously.

Anyway, new YT is live in the morning with all the updates - pretty happy with the quality of the videos on there lately, drop over and let me know what you think! ✌️

Some screenshots from my latest long format video. Lots of 3D scanning, design, and cleaning 😂.

I knew this day was coming, but I had to restart the design for the Ke25 custom dash fascia in order to make it ready for it's final version.

Sometimes you've just gotta know when to cut your losses and start fresh - sunk cost fallacy and all that.

Also, fwiw I never get AI to write my captions and I feel absolutely cheated that it uses hyphens "-" and now people are that as a marker of AI. They were my crutch, first.

That's all, rant over ✌️

Lots more over on my YT if you haven't already checked it out.. you should.

So for the longest time I've had this idea about designing a DOHC head for a k engine. I've put it aside for ages because it's never been the "right time" - but when is the right time, ya know?

@revopoint sent me this scanner to try out and use on a couple of my projects and I was thinking to myself I might as well get the ball rolling on this head design while I'm at it.

Once upon a time there was the mythical 137-e or 3kr engine but they're rarer than 🎠💩, and tech has come a long way in the last 50 odd years so I think there's an opportunity to do something cool.

I actually rarely take on projects when I can't already see the outcome/finish line and I talk about them even less but time to step out of the comfort zone a bit and give this a go.

How long will it take? I dunno.
It's gonna be on simmer in the background while I finish off some other things. But, I've already got a bit more to show, soon... 👀

Wow so that last reel really popped off. Here's a little more of the process for those that were keen to know.
@bambulab_official also sent me out this H2D-L combo to try out as well as a whole bunch of materials and accessories that I've already got a million ideas for.
Having the ability to dry, and switch between materials in the AMS makes things a lot more streamlined in my process considering I'm always chopping and changing materials for different prototypes.
I almost always mix my layers between PETG and PLA for the support interference fit to get that nice smooth surface and it all worked perfectly on the first go.
I'm very much NOT interested in spruiking things I don't personally like or use, and have turned down quite a lot of offers in the past. I'm very happy to say this machine is great so far and I can't wait to try the things I have planned... 👀

The turbo KE70 is about ready to get underway and I was going to go and get firewood tomorrow but maybe I'll use this motivation to pull the car apart instead 🤔...
