Can you build a real air-powered circular saw using LEGO? In this video, we start with a simple all-LEGO Technic saw before working our way up to a much more powerful LEGO machine driven by a custom turbine, powered by compressed air. Along the way, we experiment with 3D-printed air turbines, safety mechanisms, different rotor designs, RPM tests, gear ratios, and even a flywheel, before finally fitting a real circular saw blade. So let’s see what we can slice using the power of air! Not sponsored, but if you’d like to try metal parts in your Lego builds, I’d highly recommend https://metal-technic-parts.com Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=122597865
