Title: My first model engine project.

I built this Stirling engine some 20 years ago because I was curious to see how they worked. It was built from discarded scrap material. At the time it was suggested that I was just goofing off in the shop so I found a proper chimney.  It sat in a glass bookshelf for the last 15 years and thought it needed some attention. I was going to do some rework to seal it a little better, but it seems to run fine.
