Title: OKMO R01 Rider Ericsson Stirling Engine Modified
Post by: Jim on May 02, 2026, 06:52:19 pm

I made a new timber plinth for the engine as well as a larger copper water cooling reservoir, reshaped and straightened the copper piping, cut some brass and made some brass bolts on my lathe and scraped the red paint from the outside of the brass flywheel.
The R01 is a beautiful miniature model of the Rider Ericsson Hot Air Engine and a pleasure to run.
