By the early 1970's, I had bought a 12" Atlas/Craftsman lathe from a telescope maker who was quitting the hobby. Since I had no milling machine, I made a milling table for the lathe. My next engine was this Robinson hot air engine from plans advertised in Popular Mechanics Magazine. the displacer cylinder is an aluminum cigar tube.
