Roland Reichelt LMS Hot Air Engine
« on: March 29, 2023, 09:51:41 am »
This is my latest Ebay purchase a Roland Reichelt Hot Air Engine, I've been after one for a while
so when this came up last week I bought it. In the video it's running a Cringle Model Engineering
generator hope you like it ?.
Cheers Trevor.

Very nice Trevor, and in wonderfully clean condition!

That is quite a bit different than my Reichelt but looks to have the same base and lumpish chimney top. Mine is not quite complete, missing the overhead line shaft that yours appears to have never been intended for, as there are no holes for it in your base, but there are in mine.

Nice solid machines, and worthy of true pride in ownership!!!

Congratulations, Trevor...!!!!

Reichelt made some great engines.

You are quite fortunate with this acquisition.

Love that generator, too!

I can see why you've been looking for one. If I would have seen, I would have grabbed it too.
Nice buy, nice video, thanks.
