Model Hot Air Engine. I believe this to be a Stirling Engine HELP

Post by lordileye »

I have aquired a hot air engine retrieved from my great 'fatherinlaws
attic. This indicates model is pre 1900. There are no name plates or
markings on this engine. The engine base is wooden with a tinplate
mounting frame. with stainlees steel fly wheel and linkage. With a
brass heat chamber and chimney with a wick type fuel pot mounted
adjacent on the wood base. The size of the model is 10" X 4" 91/2"
high. I have photo's. I have listed this engine in the classified
secttion. Vist the classified section for more info. If you have any
knowledge about this engine would appreciate your input. E-mail
Lordileye@yahoo.com Thank you Richard Bowery

Yes this is indeed a Stirling engine.
Let me suggest that you go to the Site Map, click on "Gallery" and post your photographs there. Let me sugest that you also let us know as to your disposition of the engine when you part company with itl
