Stirling Generator 2 failure

This was my stirling generator 2 which imploded due to the vacuum from cooling.
It did work first time, but when I left it cool down so I could build the generator mount,
it imploded! :mad: It had a graphite piston running in pyrex cylinder, so it ran really smooth.

Guess I'll have to find a stronger pressure vessel. :mrgreen:
