Can you believe it? A V8-powered blender.
Sounds like something straight out of a mad scientist’s lab, right? But YouTuber @MisterPatina actually made it real — the world’s first functional smoothie blender powered by a Toyan V8 miniature engine. And it works. Really well.
Mister Patina is best known for his restoration skills — his channel is packed with videos bringing rusted tools, vintage gear, and forgotten machines back to life. But this project is something else: his first time working with a Toyan V8, and he went all in — not just assembling the engine, but integrating it into a fully working blender.
From the start, it’s clear how much care and precision went into the build. Every step — pistons, crankshaft, cylinder heads, rocker arms — is meticulously tuned and lubricated. Once wired up, the V8 fires to life smoothly, revving like a miniature hot rod.
The real magic, though, is in the drivetrain: he engineered a metal shaft + angled gear system to transfer power directly from the engine to the blender’s blade assembly, complete with a slip clutch to prevent any blender-smashing overrevs.
And let’s talk aesthetics — the setup is gorgeous. Clear acrylic base plate, rubber vibration dampers, exposed wiring, and a slick ignition switch… it looks like something between a science fair project and a micro muscle car. And yes — it actually blends. Yogurt, honey, frozen fruit — the smoothie comes out silky and slightly smoky (in the best way).
The comments section went wild.
“Frankenblender!”
“V8 Smoothie Maker — Jeremy Clarkson would approve.”
“Please reroute the exhaust into the cup for maximum flavor.”
Others are already pitching ideas: V8 coffee makers, V8-powered shavers, V8 margarita machines for the next camping trip. The imagination is unlimited.
But here’s the real takeaway: this build isn’t just cool or funny — it’s a masterclass in engineering, creativity, and pure DIY dedication. A perfect blend (pun intended) of mechanical precision and playful madness.
