Was it actually a running engine? He should have made a big one for a lawnmower or something. V12 sit on mower.....mmmmmm

Lovely engineering skills. Shame it is only being pushed around by compressed air. I suppose a scale carburetor or injection system plus miniature spark plugs and electrics are just a step too far.

1220 hours it says at the end. There are 261 parts and 222 screws. An unlimited patience too.
Apparently it can be done, look at this http://www.minimodelengines.com/Feature4C.htm also look at the working radial engine.

That is amazing, I wish I had the patience, the knowledge, the tools, the money, the space (well everything really) to do that.
