You have a cool son good job!

Vary nice!! I have one too. I think you are running in the wrong direction on the dynamo.

You got a good deal. These are well-made.

What a gorgeous engine! Sounds like your valve timing is in need of some tweaking still or possibly needs a different eccentric with more duration

I would really like to have one of these. Do you know where I can find one?

im glad chinese copy everything, cause germans will sell you this engines for 100$ more, and chinese don't care about mass product so better price

A good Stirling engine needs compression. With adiabatic temperature rise in the order of the difference between the high temperature compartment and the low temp one. Only then will the optimal performance be achieved. Look at the Carnot cycle diagram of pressure and temperature.

Good video. I think you need to change your valve timing so the engine runs in the other direction, this means the crosshead pressure is on the standard, not the guide plates. This might make the engine run better & quieter?

Old video, but still applicable. I would go with some way to make the wheel plates removeable. I only use my cutter for trim and small fields for cutting grass. The rest is heavy brush, saplings. Grass cutting is only 2-3 times a year so no issue with bolting up or pinning of some sort. Shocked you are using a cutter with an non-enclosed cab. Hope you are safe out there.

Never seen one before it is really wonderful

We are very interested in your UKposts content and would like to propose a cooperation application to you

I have one as well! A friend found it in a dumpster and gave it to me. Fixed a paddle switch finger and it runs like a champ. I love your accessory. What others do you have? I’d like to make a bronco buster lol.

Is that the one hand tool rescue restored

Beautiful engine. What a nice find

I find them after 48 years!!!

Tolle Maschine

i'm not sure why i clicked this but I did, thanks for engine chat

Where did you get it?

try an alternator

Really nice engine Doug. Cheers Rob

Beautiful skeleton engine Doug. Sounds great. Cheers Rob

Wonderful engine Doug, glad you got it sorted. Cheers, Alan.

Good job done !

It's nice and worth working on

Beautiful engine Doug 👍👍👍 Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Alan.

nice engine

A very nice example Doug. I have also been looking for a nice example.

Hi Doug. I think those Saf-Toy engines are great. I'm lucky enough to have 2. The first one is pretty rough but the second one is nice, even came with box and instructions. The the thing that goes on them is the leather seal on the end of the conrod. If the seal is ok you should be able to get the whistle to work. Never seen one with a black boiler before. Cheers, Alan.

The Chinese one is NOT a 6 cycle, but a standard 4 CYCLE hit and miss. This is shown by the ratio on the gear wheels. 2:1= 4 cycle. For 6 cycle it would be 3 to 1 !

what type of fuel & oil do u recommend & should the fuel be mixed with marval mystery oil ?

Love the design of that engine! It's huge! I believe the original was designed by Harry Wedge. Some years back, "Home Shop Machinist" magazine ran an article entitled, "A Modified Wedge Oscillating Engine", which detailed making one from scratch, with no castings. That's where I heard of it. You've got an outstanding engine there!

Thanks for the video, Doug! You found a good one. The later models like this one had a diecast cylinder, and are notorious for wearing to the point of not working. Yours runs very well indeed!

The original Thompson engine had a 1" bore. So does your engine have a 1/4" bore? Looks bigger than that from the video. Nice work, though!

Great engine - I love those Rider Ericsson engines! 👍

Very nice Doug. I wish something like that would show up on my doorstep 🤣 Cheers, Alan.

Noch 2 Mehr und der Finger ist Quer

Appreciate you collecting & sharing the great educational "collectibles" or "toys," depending on who you ask, & sharing them with the masses!

Thanks for giving great stuff like this a new life & wider audience!!!

Awesome "collectible!" Totally not a toy! Hahaha! Thanks for sharing! Now I know what I need for next Christmas!

What are u lubricating it with? That thing is moving!

Very nice engine

nice

but can it run an alternator :) in these days even toys needs to be in concideration.

That is a way cool motor... though I want your coffee cup the most ;-)

I love old electric motors like that Doug. I have quite a few in my collection but nothing like that one, amazing. Cheers, Alan.

It looks to be totally original and in amazing condition. What a treasure.

That's so cool!

Very nice engine
