OVERPOWERED - Paper GE90-115B Engine Model Timelapse

Рет қаралды 69,491

Ай бұрын

I recently completed the second engine for my 1:60 scale model 777-300ER. Here's a peek at all the work that goes into building each GE90-115B out of manila file folders (the design process was not included in this video). Over 70 hours of footage was captured and trimmed down to create this timelapse. Some parts of the process were omitted for the sake of time, but I will try to upload a separate extended cut to show the full construction process at a slower speed. Enjoy!
Music:

* Fair warning: the plans are mostly unlabeled and arranged for maximal space efficiency, and there isn't currently a construction guide (aside from this video), so you're on your own 😅
Some stats:
• Construction took place between early November 2023 and mid-May 2024
• Over 70 hours/2.5 terabytes of video was recorded
• Recorded with a Panasonic Lumix GH4 (Olympus M Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 lens)
• Editing was done in Final Cut Pro concurrently with the construction process

The fact that most of the detail is hidden inside when its finished, to me, demonstrates a passion beyond comprehension. 👍🏻

@lucaiaconistewart 27 күн бұрын

Thank you! A lot of the structure is hidden, but some of it is still visible when the thrust reversers are deployed: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8yUd5CW2NbOkqM.htmlsi=PnANphV6jIeMqF1K

@lucaiaconistewart Ай бұрын

I delaminate the paper to "single-ply" (ish) thickness, coat it with glue and roll it up. Once it dries it becomes incredibly hard and durable. I'll upload a longer video at some point-I had to cut certain parts out of this one for the sake of time.

Have you experimented with laser cut paper parts? It may reduce the hand crafted feeling too much, but it could make all the pieces more exact. Plus with paper as thin as that, there wont be residue buildup on the edges, or at least not much. As always, very impressive stuff. It has been wonderful to watch along as you build your little planes.
