Bing Hot Air Engine; Model 135/12
« on: June 30, 2024, 05:31:52 pm »
A recent addition to my Hot Air Engine collection.  Acquired in a private sale.  I have done nothing to it other than standard lubrication.

Unfortunately, the burner is missing.  I have the dimensions and may try to get someone to make one for me.

It runs really well.

I recorded a video earlier today of it running.  Link below:

I also took a few pictures:

Nice!

I really like Stirling Engines with a firebox, and a twin just makes it more than twice as nice!!

Really good original condition on that beauty!!!
