A model of a internal combustion 
2 Cylinder Boxer Engine as used in a Subaru but with 2 cylinders.
No assembly required. 57mm x 20mm.


I found a neat fidget spinner that claimed to be a Boxer …
 but it had horizontally opposed pistons in sync.

→>>- Opposed motion →>>  = (Right + Right) = Out of Balance
->>>- Boxer motion -<<←       = (Right - Left) = Balanced

I based it on the photo of a Subaru crankshaft.

I found many “accurate” models of car engines. But either they were too complicated for a beginner to assemble, then once done  . . . 
 all of the workings were inside the engine and you can't see how it works.

My model just shows the basic internal combustion motion of -
pistons in cylinders, with connecting rods and crankshaft.

Engineering:
5mm crankshaft, wrist pins w/ 6mm bearing hole.
Crank offset + - 5mm = 10mm piston travel.
20mm piston, 22mm cylinder.
