Deutz Engine Screensaver - download animated construction of a motor
engine

Our Scout unit are working towards their Mechanics
badge. One of the parents, Mike, works at Ford Motor Company and brought
this rather cool screensaver along yesterday evening. The screensaver
takes the viewer through the various parts of a motor engine as you
watch it being constructed in front of you. Sadly, the screensaver is
for Windows PCs only... Watch the Flash animation and download the Deutz
Engine screensaver
. I wonder if there is a tool to construct
Screensavers for Mac OS X from Flash movies? You can now download
the excellent screensaver
from this site.

Please keep this service running.

Due to the enormous interest in downloading this screensaver from
this site and the large amount of traffic coming to my server host, I
would really appreciate a donation towards the hosting costs of this
service. Many thanks for your understanding.

Perkins
3D animated construction of a Perkins Diesel Engine Screensaver

One of the biggest draws to my blog site has been the
Deutz Screensaver which shows the construction and operation of a car
motor engine. I posted the animation because of the educational benefit
it brought to the Scouts who were learning all about car engines. In
fact, we stripped down a car engine to its component parts. What we
weren't able to show was how the engine operated, which is where the
screensaver did it so wonderfully well.

Thanks to Yoseph Santoz, a reader of this blog, he pointed me to
another screensaver which shows the construction and working of a Diesel
Engine. Rather than using drawn artwork, this screensaver appears to be
using 3D representations of the actual parts. It's amazing. Thanks
Yoseph!

This version is compatible with Windows only, although there is an
mpg movie contained within the zip archive for playback using QuickTime
on a Macintosh or Windows PC.
