oki, nice, then i will do that.then the cylinder should be 90mm long, and 30mm in diameter,and piston length should be 60mm,am i right??
Thanks for the advice, i will do so

Lars

this is what i have learned from ian s c, the piston length should be 3 times as long as the diameter.. about those piston shapes, i only can say that i dont think they should be closed, cause then they can explode when they are getting warm.and you also need some space between the cylinder and the ...

oki ian i will take your advice,i will build a smaller one..what diameter do you recomend

Thanks for reply ian s c
i think the lathe will be here in 9days..and i am thinking to get the material ready to the mill enters my home

Regards:Lars

I have bought a lathe it is this one Metalldreiebenk 550mm CJ9525/550 m/stativ i bought it in Norway, so i can have good support, so now i am looking for some metal that i can use for a stirling engine, i want to build a engine with about 60mm diameter, so where can i find a iron/steel pipe with tha...

Thank you, but i have builded about 15 engines since that one, i have 1500rpm as maximum now,

Lars

Thank you all for input, i will use it to make stirling parts, and snowmobile parts, mainly,..i want to build a steel piston to my next stirling engine, and it would be so good with a mill/lathe, cause i allways need some parts, and i also got some weird ideas about some other engines.. Thanks again...

Thank you for reply ian s c ..i can purchase any machine in my country/Norway.i will have a look on the Sieg Super C6-550 Hi Torque lathe

Hey I am thinking to purchase a mill/Lathe,the model i want is a Proxxon PD 400... http://www.proxxon.com/en/micromot/24400.php .i will use it to make some small parts, and i will mostly use it to produce stirling engine parts, but i want to be sure that i buy the right one, for what i am supposed t...

No, i have just been building on my snowmobile, but i have welded a new cylinder and i am trying now to make a new piston in steel, so it will be super strong, i will be finished in some months, cause of all the work i need to do on my sled, and my friends sled!! Anyway thanks for asking! Regards:Lars

Nice engine, there are many ways to make it go faster, but i think it will be weak if you make more rpm

Krijn good to hear from you again. I am not in the plumbing business, i am only a self learned mechanic.i have worked on engines all my life.about my building, i have not had the time to do anythig, cause of my sled work.i shall soon be finished with the water-cooling system.now i been welding the f...

it sucks, give me admin rights and i will bann them....

Nice drawings, you must be an engineer, wish i was!!

Thanks again. Atm i am out of sled parts, so i think i will build the power source to the water pump tomorrow, a friend is on his way to me, and he have some brass pipes, that i need to make/repair the power-source.i am also thinking that i should build another stirling engine on the exhaust to run ...

Thank you, i will not make a mechanical waterpump, i will use the exhaust to warm up my peltier elements, like i have done before, but i have got 2 more elements, so it will be very very nice,...the last waterpump i made could shoot water about 10cm. this is the last water pump i filmed, i had a wat...
