Teching DM115 1/10 Scale Metal DIY Inline 4 Cylinder Diesel Engine Model Kit
Hero Section: The Raw Power of Industry on Your Desk
There is a distinct ruggedness to a diesel engine—the workhorse of the industrial world. The Teching DM115 captures that spirit in a precision-engineered, 1/10 scale metal model. This isn't just a static display; it is a kinetic tribute to mechanical engineering. Whether you are a veteran mechanic missing the grease of the garage, or a hobbyist looking for a sophisticated challenge that results in a stunning desktop centerpiece, this kit offers an immersive journey into the heart of the machine.
Why Choose the Teching DM115 Diesel Model?
- A Unique Diesel Aesthetic: Unlike the ubiquitous gasoline engine models, the DM115 features the distinct geometry and robust styling of a classic diesel power plant. It stands out in any collection with its industrial look and feel.
- Heirloom-Quality Metal Construction: Forget plastic snap-together kits. This beast is crafted from CNC-machined Aluminum Alloy and Stainless Steel. With over 300 parts, the finished model weighs a substantial 1.5kg, offering a cold, premium metallic touch that screams quality.
- The "Flow State" Build Experience: The 4-hour assembly process is designed to be a mental escape. It requires focus, logic, and patience. It is the perfect way to disconnect from the digital noise of daily life and reconnect with the satisfaction of building something with your hands.
- Safe, Dynamic Simulation: Powered by a built-in rechargeable battery and electric motor, this engine comes to life. You can watch the crankshaft spin, the pistons pump, and the valves dance—all without the noise, fumes, or fire risk of real fuel.
Technical Highlights: Engineering Exposed
- OHV (Overhead Valve) Structure: The model faithfully replicates the Overhead Valve mechanism. You will assemble the pushrods and rocker arms, gaining a clear visual understanding of how the camshaft controls the intake and exhaust rhythm.
- Precision CNC & Anodizing: Every component is manufactured with high-precision CNC technology for a perfect fit. The surface is treated with anodic oxidation, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant finish that maintains its metallic luster for years.
- Electric Drive System: A discreet electric motor drives the flywheel, simulating the engine's operation. This allows for a consistent, smooth run time of over 60 minutes on a single charge, perfect for demonstrations or teaching.
- 1/10 Scale Realism: Every bolt, gear, and pulley is scaled down with accuracy, providing a realistic educational tool for understanding the internal combustion cycle.

Usage Scenario: The Weekend Workshop
Clear your workbench or dining table. Pour a cup of coffee. Open the high-end gift box and lay out the metal trays. For the next few hours, you are the chief engineer. You guide your son, daughter, or friend through the assembly of the crankshaft. You tighten the connecting rods. Finally, you press the start button. The engine hums to life, a symphony of moving metal. You place it on your shelf, not just as a decoration, but as a trophy of your patience and skill.
Important Tips from the Workshop
- Simulation Only: Please note, while this is modeled after a diesel engine, it is an electric simulation. It does not run on diesel fuel or gasoline. Do not attempt to add fuel.
- Lubrication: Metal-on-metal friction generates heat. Use the included grease (or high-quality mechanical grease) on the gears and crankshaft journals during assembly to ensure smooth, quiet operation.
- Organization: With 300+ parts, keeping your workspace tidy is key. Use a magnetic tray for the screws to prevent them from rolling away.
