Product Description
THE THINKING MAN’S ENGINE KIT
An ideal project for the beginning model builder. Easy-to-assemble and runs very well. All machining has been done for you. A dry fuel platform and a test quantity of “ESBIT” dry fuel is supplied. Denatured alcohol also works well as a fuel for Stirling Cycle Engines. For those persons who prefer using denatured alcohol, we have developed a handy burner, Stock No. 90, which is available on our solar accessories page for a small additional charge.
Specifications: 7-1/2″ length x 3-1/2″ height x 4″ width, up to 1000 RPM, die cast aluminum cylinders, brass arms and a sand cast aluminum platform and flywheel. Assembly required.

I´ve bought this engine for my kids and me. I´ve assembled in a little more than 30 minutes and run perfectly. Some burrs had to be removed on the plate base but not important. Excelent product.

Bought this engine for my sons 8th birthday, and with a little help from dad we put it together easily. Runs great with the ESBIT fuel tablets and is a great kit for first time solar engine builders.
