Tutorial how to make engine part 1
I will generate tutorials that explains how to make car engine step by step
I used random dimensions. I want to explain the commands and the way to make an engine. You can use your dimensions
In this part we will start with connecting rod

New tutorials will be published next month!
Start to modelling your V12!

Dear all one thing I can not understand here you have drawn one hole worth 5 mm here after than you have drawn 7mm hole and both the holes has been extrude cut through out from their so you have shown both holes in drawings so how it is possible??
How come is the extrude of 11mm and in the drawing it shows thickness = 15mm ? Other than that , thank you very much... I'm using this to get some knowledge about combustion motors as I'll be introduced to them in a couple months in thermodynamics II.
Hello aykut, are there any drawing files of the dimensions?
can you upload them too... that would be very helpful for us to follow up with the dimensions.... I want to make an engine.
Thank you
this part have problem,e drawing does not equal to your part!!!!!please check it!!!!(if you sketch it,you can understand what i mean)
Props to the tutor. Gret tutorial!!. I look forward to the day when I can share one with fellow students of solidworks. Thanks
As I see these tutorials can help another cad solfware users
Kaushal Bhatt created his own V12 on CATIA!
Very nice tutorial so far after i enjoyed creating the first part, I assume the last fillet around the edge of the connecting rod was 0.5mm? that's what i used
The filleting part is confusing.
The given file mentions something else compared to the tutorial...
Corrections to that section would make it easier =)
Great job on the tutorial (Y)
nice tuto, in step 6 when i try to fillet , the system tell me its not possible becouse specified radius would eliminate one of the elements.
some know how to resolve, thanks

one question to inventor users,when the crank has been built you can go in and turn the journals to the degs that they need to be,now you cant do that in inventor unless you made one piece and brought it in to the assembly files,any other way of doing it or should I just model the crank in a part file and make the changes there so its all one solid,ie just do it by constraining the sketch in the first place,built the whole crank and then found I could not change the angles in the part file or can I???
Allah razı olsun kardeşim. ben kimya mühendisiyim, hobi olarak uğraşıyorum Solid ile.
Böyle uluslararası platformlarda sizin gibi yetenekli kardeşlerimizi görünce gurur duymamak içten değil.
İnşallah ben de çizmeyi deneyeceğim bu parçayı...
First of all big thanks for this extraordinary tutorial, it helps me my graduated project. Now I would like type a couple of turkish words.
abii eyvallah :))
Thank you for all of this tutorials. I'll try to all understand but that's not quite simple as I'm a french personn. I imagine there a not tutorials in french. Don' worry I better understand than I write :D
Thanks Aykut. The tutorial is pretty helpful. I made an Alibre Design version of this connecting rod.
Well done Aykut. Very detailed tutorial. I am encouraging you to prepare other tutorials for Sheet Metal an for Welding for example.. Congrats !!!
These tutorials look great and are detailed. Btw would you happen to know where I can find detailed dimensions for engine parts so that I can accurately model them?
Hello, very happy I have found this tutorial, thanks.
I done everything for this one apart from somewhere between step 12 & 13 where I cannot figure out how to mirror the groove shape into the opposite side?
Any help would be great...thanks.
this is perfect in the line of STEM work I do with kids, I already have them using SolidWorks to model a Formula Lego Car, the engine tutorial will completely blow their mind to the power of CAD!
wonderful, many thanks
First of all Hi!My name is George and i have to say that i am newbie with solidworks so i have some questions. Why my sketch brings out some yellow lines when i trim in step 5 and 7?I do exactly what you show but i still get this lines. I do it over and over and the yellow lines is still there.i dont know if i dont do something right but i rly wanna do this tutorial.i cannot extrude and i believe this is from the yellow lines..i get an error that says "sketch contains more than one open contour"......... Plz any help it would be great. P.S.1. I get this yellow lines in tangents. P.S.2. I am from greece so i am sry about my bad english.

Hey, I'm doing this in AutoCAD 2013, and I can't seem to figure out Step 6 for the Fillet. I'm new to AutoCAD so if anybody could please tell me how to do that step I would be very grateful, Thanks.
can u pls give some source where i can find real standard dimensions of all engine parts used practically somewhere...i badly need them to work on a designing project
it's very nice work,of course I can use solidwork ,but I do not know engine knowlege,I want to study it
This tutorial is very helpful and has given me a lot more knowledge and understanding of solidworks as a beginner.
why in the tutorial two holes drawn with different diameter andboth the holes has been extrude cut ?!!!
Nicely done bro, just wanted to know can u upload all Images of tutorials at once as an pdf or book i will be better in a way to download and perform applications with a printed hand book. And thanks for the uploads.
Don't bother building this engine if you ever want to fully complete it! The tutorial is incomplete and stops at step 49 basically leaving you with the bottom end and the cylinder heads. You can design the rest yourself if you feel capable but don't rely on Aykut Dana (the tutorial maker) for any assistance as he will ignore any and all contact!
