I was going to do a video of my old Stirling Walking Beam Engine.
It was my very first build of a stirling type engine and is looking
pretty rough. Too much age and heat. I burnt a hole in the bottom
of the displacer cylinder before I got the video.
Anyway...
It is a simple temperature differential engine built from tin cans
and a wood frame. The design is by Darryl Boyd. He has the plans
for it available for free download on his web site:
Boyd's Tin Can Stirling Engines
It requires very little machine work but gives you plenty of soldering
practice.
