<t>Greetings, all. I've been interested in Stirling engines lately, and<br/> have decided to build a model for myself.<br/> <br/> I generally don't like the complexity of sealing pistons and the<br/> flywheel mechanism, as sealing is hard to do without good equipment,<br/> and the flywheel makes for...
