Well thanks rob just want you to know I was always into rotaries cause I love unusual motors but honestly you and the Vargas brothers are the only one who really share information on how to do them properly hopefully I'll be buying parts from you when I can buy myself a rotary love from Jamaica
I think this and the last video are the most hype since the first 4 rotor startup. I love the fact that you got into machining and do your own thing. As a german engineer i think you are doing an amazing job and am flattered that you got that really nice cnc. Lets go rob, youll be THE rotary guy in america!
Yeah this is so awesome and as a non engineer I have learned so much. Rob has this methodical scientific way of doing things and these two videos are just incredible!
Being that I’m studying to become a mechanical engineer, seeing all that math come together and have each bolt fit perfectly was incredible. All the work you have put into this is just so amazing and I cannot wait to see what you keep making in the future.
Rob, hard to tell by the video as we are seeing the gauge from an angle, which is called parallax error but, it looked tight, around 0.0005" and the way the indicator was angled you will have what is called cosine error. Within 20 degrees you will need a tip with a football shaped stylus tip called a involute tip, if not you can calculate for this error using the ball tip you have. The contact looks to be at 30° to the part. The indicator reads 0.0005". Cosine Error Correction = 0.0005" x cosine 30° = 0.0005" x 0.866 = 0.000433" - Difference = 0.0005" - 0.000433" = 0.000067". This number is what you subtract from 0.0005" to get your real reading. It isn't a lot and will probably make no difference but, I thought that I would let you know. If you were measuring parts step by step that are part of an assembly this error could add up and be out a significant amount and could potentially cause an issue. Sorry, I'm nerding out here big time but, it is all good stuff to know. For comments on the other videos, I believe a milling boring head is a more accurate and precise way of creating your dowel holes based on your datum of choice (however a much slower process). Using an end mill and reamer is ok, however the holes are being resized so the holes will be precise but, not accurate given you are trying to achieve coaxiality with each plate and housing. If you see this message ask around, you work with some pretty experienced guys and see what they have to say. Cheers and great build as always!
You are mostly correct in theory except that type of dial indicator measures movement perpendicular to the face of the dial, not "in and out" like a conventional dial indicator. In addition, they design them so the needle is just about rubbing the face (the side with the markings, not the cover) specifically to eliminate parallax error, and in this case the needle is only moving a few degrees so we are seeing approximately the same level of minimized parallax error on each end of the measurement. In this case because of the type of indicator, you would use sine rather than cosine which results in quite a bit less error (subtracting .5 of the original value rather than .87), and I would guess it's about 1 to 1.1 thou of clearance being indicated on the gauge with about 5-7 tenths being the actual amount (I'm not sure it's as steep as 30*, but its hard to tell of course being on video)
@@nickopedia5669 Yes, you are correct, the parallax here isn't really an issue. My bad. I am confused about the sine rather than cosine error though as I'm talking about indicator stylus to work piece angle. I understand you are using a test indicator correction factor with 0.87 witch is derived from cosine error. To the life of me I cannot remember sine error ever coming up in determining test indicator error. It has been about 7 years since I've practiced metrology so go easy on me. Thanks Nick.
@@CHUDHUCKER I haven't officially studied metrology in my classes yet but was more approaching it from just a math/geometry perspective, so "sine" error is probably the wrong way to do it even if it achieves the same result. I looked it up and indicators that use a sweeping arm to read perpendicular motion are called "dial test indicators" while the classic plunger style is just "dial indicator". I suspect the cosine correction formula you used is meant only for dial indicators. In your instance you said that you were using cosine(30) x the measurement, which is the .86 x the measurement and that is what I was saying was too much correction. Since the "test" indicator in this case could be simulated by a conventional indicator at 90 degrees to it, you could just do cos(90-30) to "virtually" replace the dial test indicator with a conventional dial indicator, or just use sin() for dial test indicators and cos() for dial indicators. Both equal the same thing, and in this case are a correction factor of 0.5
@@nickopedia5669 I should specify saying about 30 degrees. I do see where you are going with this though. To be honest, I never would try to measure the angle and would just use the correction factor of 0.5 anyways. I was just fully nerding to show the math. The force used to push the shaft up not being constant blows out the repeatability here anyways.
yo okay real talk though I'm 23 minutes in and I'm so proud of rob, I feel like a proud dad at the age of 18 watching rob make this engine nearly flawlessly with the dowels coming to the same exact height. its really cool to see rob at this point in this venture and I'm so happy that I've been apart of his fanbase while he's made these achievements
I’ve never watched a 54 minute RUclips video before... until now. It’s so awesome to see this growth in content, knowledge, skills, and ability video after video.
I'm seriously hoping you take this to the level I think you're going... I'm rooting for you, and I see you definitely have the drive to be a top shelf builder/engineer doing something you apparently enjoy doing. Good luck, I'm hoping to meet you one day and see where this new found skillset takes you 🤙
May I say, this was one of the best rotary assembly videos I have ever seen. none of that 'can't show you this part' or cuts too long where you cannot follow it.
So proud of how far you have came with your skills. It's awesome to watch some grow in skills. Welding, CNC, cad drawing, planning just doing it! So awesome. Keep it up young master
This video is just infinitely fascinating and full of knowledge and subtle wisdom. I've havent been so captivated by a entire engine build because it's so cool to learn what goes into a rotary. Awesome content Rob. This is pure gold.
Rob. You put this shit together, doing techniques no one has tried before. It runs beautifully. I change a wiper motor on my 95 dakota and I'm absolutely amazed the thing even starts afterwards. You're an inspiration my dude.
This was actualy the first time I saw an complete engine assembly of a rotary engine. Must say it was quite satisfying to watch. And as a bonus you added the startup and drive. Great content and you are a great ambassador for the rotary engine. Loving it! Greetings from Holland PS in the commentsection I discovered that this was almost an hour of footage. When you don't realize you just spend an hour watching something, the content was realy good
@@brandonw465 Mhm yes I know, I already have a plan on how to provide the money for myself, I am also aware that it will take a while get the custom parts for the engine, and swap out the transmission (manual swap too), etc.
this is almost my favorite rob dahm video,only slightly edged out by the burn yard video of the 4 rotor....i love how enthusiastic he is but at the same time how soft spoken he is ...youre so inspiring Rob dahm
The way you explain your build and display all the minor yet just as vital points of the why,what,where,and hows involved in order to accomplish the desired results when performing the surgery of assembly needed had me absolutely glued to my phone and caused the absence of proper period placement in my comment that only someone with the lung capacity of a Sasquatch could read in its entirety without blacking out. It was easy to diagnose my ADD,go figure eh.lol Love your delivery, I wish you were my shop teacher,heck I may be fifty years old but if you want to adopt me I'm o.k with that if I can learn what you know. Have a great day brother,bless you and everyone else here reading this.
Your enthusiasm and excitement is amazing to watch. I've never watched any rotary content at all until your 4wd 4 rotor, I don't understand them, but watching you learn machining and engineering to build this different and stronger than usual, is a little bit addicting and inspiring.
Anyone who has ever had a passion for something in your life knows the amount of stamina and drive to get it done. You can't sleep. You eat really fast. Just to get back to work. Rob really loves what he does. And it shows. 🔥🔥
Over the years I've followed you I am learning more from your experiments and your personal experience building these cars than I have from researching and watching other videos on rotary engines. Awesome work on everything, its all very exciting.
A downright inspiring video. Have never been more excited about Rob's journey than now. Plus the nostalgia of seeing that 3 rotor run is awesome, back to the foundations of this channel
Thanks Rob (For showing other folks about the importance of alignment stubs vs bolts, and other important aspects of rotary building) Please clearcoat that toasted back iron and display in the shop!
It should be Abom79 then all the tolerances would at least be more precise and it would take less time milling everything because rob could definitely learn a lot from him
Some other car builders on youtube might take weeks to post follow up episodes of an earlier episode but Rob gets more done in a single episode than most other car vloggers get done in a week
I don't know if I'm more impressed by the result or the amount of time it took you guys to completely rework the 3 Rotor. Great work, not only entertaining to watch, but also really educational!
@@mattconway8900 The 4-rotor in Ahura already has these dowels (actually better ones as they're designed into the billet plates and housings instead of retrofitted to stock parts).
Since this whole affair is an exercise in automotive self pleasure, if it were my project, i'd swap all the bearings to double truncated cone roller bearings. Expensive, but they last a hell of a lot longer than any other bearing for their weight class. And if they're arranged in either the tip in or tip out variant, they also work as thrust bearings.
This is so good. Nothing major went wrong and it is unbelievably satisfying watching something go together so easily. It's a testament to what you did here. Nice job man.
Just as a "kid" myself (18) I have always loved rotary engines the sound, the way they work and the rx7 you got there, watching you put this thing all together each little part of it brought me so much joy in just thinking what if one day I did that or what if one day I get to own an rx7. Overall man I love the videos you make and how you go so much into detail about everything you do keep it up and I am really excited to see where this car goes from here!
*WHY ARE YOU NOT TALKING ABOUT THE RPM ACT, AND HOW THE EPA WANTS TO TAKE AWAY OUR MODIFIED CARS! WE NEED EVERYONE IN THE CAR COMMUNITY TALKING ABOUT IT*
of all the rotary things the one thing that stuck out the most to me was "those are *leaf springs* sealing the dorito's" really tickled my interest!! (20 minutes in and absolutely fascinated) Also Rob "endplay to precise spec" then "sawzall the shit out of this beam in my way" - epic! I just stopped what I was doing and watched this to the end!!
you my friend are an inspiration ! i love how any job can be done yourself even if it means failing a few times before getting it right. Knowledge is priceless and you can never have enough of it !
I love your work rob. I work as a cnc machinist welder and mechanic at a shop and you litaraly do everything i love. So fun watching your videos would love to visit your shop one day!
Started watching this vid and thought "Huh, 54 minutes long, bet I can skip forward some.." - This didn't happen and if anything I skipped *back* to re-watch parts! Excellent content! :)
I've been watching your channel for years and absolutely love the direction it's going with you transparently talking about how you build engines. The technical content and longer videos are an excellent format as well! When will you be building and selling rotary engines?
The joy I see in Rob and the rest of the guys when this beast started up and idled properly is just awesome! I can't wait to see what this 3 rotor does!
I don't work on cars often just regular maintenance but I love watching these videos and learning about rotory's! Thank you for this entertainment Rob! :)
That Bridges porting in the plates look great. I like to hear that music sweet from the ports the traditional Brap, Brap, Brap. Good luck with the tuning and see that's 1,200 hp in Dyno
Rob your a madman I love your transparency. I feel like my understanding of rotary engines is thanks to that, im glad that i was tripping on acid while I watched this. When you have an engine take my money.
Rob love this content and your enthusiasm is awesome and makes it so much more entertaining to watch. Keep it up! And thank you for giving me something to watch in the hospital waiting for my first child to get released Monday!!!
Its really awesome watching you drive around w ur buddys in your wrapped lincoln and having hub caps fall of it. To watching you learn and fully takeover all of the machine work and hand make and machine all these parts w such perfect tolerances
Tanks Rob for posting those amazing videos i was frustrated cause of a little nitro engine that i can't make it run and started feeling sad. Your videos just bright my day. Love your passion and hope you keep on with the amazing content.

I love your work rob. I work as a cnc machinist welder and mechanic at a shop and you litaraly do everything i love. So fun watching your videos would love to visit your shop one day!
Started watching this vid and thought "Huh, 54 minutes long, bet I can skip forward some.." - This didn't happen and if anything I skipped *back* to re-watch parts! Excellent content! :)
I've been watching your channel for years and absolutely love the direction it's going with you transparently talking about how you build engines. The technical content and longer videos are an excellent format as well! When will you be building and selling rotary engines?
Just yes..right!
I’ll watch this stuff all day
Crazy therapeutic rotary build chill vibes
Thanks Rob
So good to see the 3 Rotor taking proper shape. Can't wait to see it get tuned and dialled in. Love it.
The joy I see in Rob and the rest of the guys when this beast started up and idled properly is just awesome!
I can't wait to see what this 3 rotor does!
I don't work on cars often just regular maintenance but I love watching these videos and learning about rotory's! Thank you for this entertainment Rob! :)
I love how much content you've been pumping out recently.
Small things make people happy with projects. "I turned the wheel, and it turned" -Rob, with the happiest face on the planet.
Dude a whole hour video. This is what iv been asking god for.
I've been worried that Rob is not posting enough, somehow I felt empty. And now we get spoiled with almost and hours content.
😍
This is some of the best content I've seen on RUclips. Hour long is even better. 👍👍👍
Rob Dahm figures it out himself , with help. i respect this man
That Bridges porting in the plates look great. I like to hear that music sweet from the ports the traditional Brap, Brap, Brap. Good luck with the tuning and see that's 1,200 hp in Dyno
Rob your a madman I love your transparency. I feel like my understanding of rotary engines is thanks to that, im glad that i was tripping on acid while I watched this. When you have an engine take my money.
Really like the long-form video. It was great to be able to follow the whole process in one go.
Rob love this content and your enthusiasm is awesome and makes it so much more entertaining to watch. Keep it up! And thank you for giving me something to watch in the hospital waiting for my first child to get released Monday!!!
Its really awesome watching you drive around w ur buddys in your wrapped lincoln and having hub caps fall of it. To watching you learn and fully takeover all of the machine work and hand make and machine all these parts w such perfect tolerances
Your welding has come so far in just a few months. Nice work Rob!!!
Tanks Rob for posting those amazing videos i was frustrated cause of a little nitro engine that i can't make it run and started feeling sad. Your videos just bright my day. Love your passion and hope you keep on with the amazing content.
This is one of the most exciting videos. It's just the start of amazing future plans! Hell yeah man congratulations!!!
Watching you quietly for years. Well done. Very well done.
all the Rob Dahm for an hour just what i need in my life
In depth videos like the last couple videos are really enjoyable to watch and I’ve been learning so much, ty rob
that whole hour of the dahmpound! i could get used to that for sure!. Congrats on getting it running.
Today my order with my shirt and hoodie arrived alongside the ahura blood, and then you bless me with this, you are my god.
Pure 54 minutes of meditation! Love this stuff Rob.
CONGRATULATIONS on this Rebuild and WORKING Power Steering! 🤘😎👍
I just got a years worth of rob in one video... full build and start in one vid?!? Great job!
Found Rob on another channel then found myself here.
This guy needs way more recognition for his work, insanity in rotor form!
Every car community needs a Rob Dahm. Especially Subaru.
