I made this model thinking about a desk machine to show off what we engineers work with... this basic car has it all Steering a Diff , Universal Joint and Piston its the basic car and would even work really great to explain the mechanisms. This assembly doesn’t requiere any screw or bolt all parts are fitted and fixed by others so its perfect for 3d printing I believe the piston, crank and rod, And the Universal Joint can be printed as different parts but already assembled. Thanks to Silvio for Válvulas e escape \ valves exhaust and refrigeration system. This model is made to encourage someone to study mechanical engineering....
