<br />
This is a blog where we study and develop several models of engines that everybody can make. Our goal is to create a ceramic stirling engine.But in the meantime we see another alternatives for to make at home. All is a question of the tools you have, but the most part of the models can make it with the typical tools and very cheaply, generally almost all the drawings are free.So enjoy and have fun with it!<br />

This is a very simple model you can build with very little budget, made it with cans, it's all a challenge for new people that require a lot of patience.<br />
