That’s quite the flywheel. What was its original use?

Here is the start of my Strling engine by Coolegem. I got the plans from a Google search and found an online translator from the Dutch to English. After seeing the plans, I just had to make that linkage to see how it works. Like a lot of my builds, I now wait to find materials to finish it. Thin wall tubing in the needed sizes is my biggest obstacle.

That’s what it looked like, but I wasn’t sure. Isn’t it great when you can find an application for such things?

thanks!!!

Really beautiful and hardly any vibration at all! Using that sewing machine flywheel also gives you a round belt pulley to run an accessory if you so desire. Congratulations on a well executed and beautiful engine!
