One more question before i order the piano wire to my new flywheel shaft/crankshaft,is 3mm to thick or is it a good size to use as flywheel shaft?.i am also gonna order ball bearings to the shaft, but i need to hear what you mean about That first.

Are there some info about the rubber diaphragm out there somewhere?,i can find anything than just a running stirling with the rubber diaphragm!!

I don't build tin can motors, but I suggest that you look in google, put in tin can Stirling Engine plans, and see what you find. That might have you spending an hour or so, you could also put in Stirling Engine with diaphragm. Ian S C

i have done alot of reading, i have seen all your vids ian s c, i shall build the rubber diaphragm,and use long rods"the machine will produce more rpm",than with short rods??
