The V6 - BeerTurbo Engine

The V6 Beerturbo

V6 Beerturbo is a playful, mechanically inspired 3D model that reimagines a classic V6 engine as the ultimate beverage holder. Designed to resemble a compact performance engine block, it features six precision-sized cylinders — each perfectly capable of holding a standard beer.

It’s not air-cooled, oil-cooled, or water-cooled — it’s ice-cooled. Just drop in a few cold beers (or add actual ice if you’re feeling fancy), and the V6 Beerturbo delivers optimal chilling performance with absolutely zero concern for efficiency ratings. The more you load it, the better it performs. Thermodynamics may have questions, but the results speak for themselves.

Designed specifically for 3D printing, the model keeps things simple and solid, with clean lines, stable geometry, and enough structure to handle a full six-pack without throwing a rod. It doesn’t rev, it doesn’t leak — it just sits there, looking like an engine and doing one job extremely well.

Instructions

Parts Overview

The entire engine is made up of the following printed parts:

• Plate 1: Engine Base
• Plate 2: 2 × Cylinder Heads
• Plate 3: Engine Cover
• Plate 4: Handle, plus 2 × bolts and 2 × nuts for handle assembly

Printing Notes

• The engine cover and cylinder heads should be printed with supports enabled.
• All other parts can be printed without supports.

Optional color change:
If you want to change the text color on the engine cover, add a pause at the last two layers in your slicer and swap filament before resuming the print.

Assembly

1. Glue the two cylinder heads to the engine base, making sure they are properly aligned.
2. Attach the handle to the engine base using the provided bolts and nuts.
3. Place the engine cover on top (no glue required).

That’s it — no tuning, no torque specs, and no calibration required. Just load it up and enjoy. 🍺
