Alpha type 3D printed Stirling

Post by aeropic »

Hi Stirling friends,

It is my first visit here and, as an introduction, I would just want to share with you my last creation: a 3D printed alpha Stirling.
It's a very simple project, easy to buid (even without a printer).

I've put everything on thingiverse: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:278422
and a video on Youtube: http://youtu.be/NF4qvpR8RvY

I also have a small webpage where you can see my other engines (page partly in french partly in english... I'm living in France)

Best regards

Hi,

Your engine looks really nice! Nice way of using a 3D-printer to create a Stirling Engine!
I also watched a few of your other video's, your engines look really nice.

Maybe it's time to look out if i can find a few glass syringes to make something like this, but i don't have a 3D-printer, so i have to make it in some other way.

Regards Krijn
