Hi Shane. Dont forget the CB net later on. Been going on all afternoon here.

If someone has to ask what the point is, I don't think they get the point :) I have a little model sterling engine which didn't even require construction, turns a little motor to generate enough to run an LED bulb. It's just satisfying to watch it run, and of course educational to those who don't know how they work. Encouraging innovation and thinking of various ways to problem solve etc.

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Totally agree.

[@alanslade2319]

nice one mate

Alcohol is the fuel to use for that because it leaves no soot. Around here there's a product called "gas line antifreeze" which is a blend of ethanol and isopropanol, and it makes for good alcohol fuel, it's cheap too.

Incidentally, that seems like a variation on the design known as The Hero of Alexandria engine I think?

[@tonywright8294]

Yes you are quite correct .Did you think no one else knew ? Moron

I just used a little clean fuel on a cloth.

Hardly anything is made out of 3D printed plastic, except things you know will be

[@Greg-et2dp]

Frid in the shed I learn lot from you about bying cb radios and antennas for cb radios and power supplys for cb radios my friend

[@cbrmac]

Now try and explain to the xyl why you set fire to the kitchen 🤣

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Yeah almost went wrong.

[@cbrmac]

@CB-RADIO-UK lol not a good idea to use meths in a pretty closed container 🤣....use clean oil for a paraffin lamp ... entertaining though 🤣

[@pdoyle2]

I have just had mine delivered, does anyone know how to tell when the water level is to low as there is no sighting window? I don't want to cause an accident

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Hi. There is no window. Has a blow safety valve to let put excess steam. You can see the steam coming out the sides. It will stop when the water has been used up and slow down. I doubt the burner has enough heat to do any damage if dry.

[@pdoyle2]

Many thanks for peace of mind didn't want to blow my shed up

[@Greg-et2dp]
