msa / kinetic labinteractive study — 001
Geometry. Motion. Consequence.
Nothing imported.
Everything engineered.
A locomotive built from code, not model files. Turn the wheels. Separate the assemblies. Follow the mechanism.
MSA—01 / 2-6-0 studypreparing the workbench
A code-generated machine is taking shape. JavaScript and WebGL 2 enable the interactive view; the assembly notes below work without them.

by taking it apart.
00 / the whole system
A model is an explanation.
Every cylinder, spoke, rivet and connecting rod begins as a dimension. The model is assembled at runtime, and its motion is calculated—not played back from an animation file. Select an assembly to see where it fits.

ScopeKinematic illustration
An original stylized mechanism study, not a historical replica or a steam-physics simulation. The model remains on its inspection track while the mechanism runs.
