A very nice compilation. The Wiggers Stirling works very evenly and powerfully. I like the mill with the miller and the donkey. I have to show the video to my grandson right away. He is always enthusiastic about something like that. ;D
Cheers

The kids really liked this setup and it was even better because they didn’t have to wait for any steam  :D

Thanks Bruce, I won’t hold my breath, but if you ever let go of that Stiwi 2, please let me know!  ;)

The Stiwi2 is the only engine I've ever had in the SPS shop that Ang has claimed as her own , so it looks like its here permanently. But...if she should change her mind (she never does) I'll keep you in mind 😉👍
