Hi Jim, That is a wonderful  engine and a great looking, great running example of a high quality Stirling Cycle engine.
I agree with all above who love your nice wood base and gas burner upgrades.
Very well done, my friend...!!!

Very nice quality hot air motor - and perfectly arranged and presented by you.
I did not understand which bird made that squeaking noise or was
it your engine?
Congrats, Arnold :D

Thanks Arnold.

The birds are very active here as its end of Spring, those ones were common Starlings.....a pest bird here.

Starlings are a pest bird on this side also. I'll take a Stirling any day,
and I'll take-out a Starling every day.

Very nice setup Jim. You did a wonderful job mounting it which makes a wonderful display.
A fine running engine such as this deserves nothing less.

Thanks Tommy.
