I am a machinist. Built my own small steam engine. I love this stuff...can't get enough. Steam is still king. People don't realize...between gas turbine engines, and steam turbine powered power plants, it's still used today. All over the world. Love it.

Is this made of Chinesium?
JohnnyQ90
I will be brutally honest about this, you could have built a better engine then that with your eyes shut and your hands tied behind your back!!!
China is a waste of an economy, and that engine was a waste of money, even if it was free! Mind you, those improvements were top-notch ;)
Hey!
You should have a crack at building an engine some time in your lathe! You would break the internet like Kim Kardashian!
im sorry brodie nut you couldn't build a sand castle with the help of the boy scouts... you are so inept that you cant even post one video showing how inept you are
Why are you claiming its a stirling engine? It clearly is not.
buy from them get it 5mths later making interest of your $
Ignore the comments.
This little engine is great as a conversation piece at the table with friends and a learning tool.
Nice work.
I came from China, and this reminds me of my hometown and childhood. At the period of time in 90's, there were huge amounts of tractors used at my place called Fujian. When I hear the licker engine running, the sound was familiar and touching.
Dave Micolichek some did..... I believe Fairbanks Morse had some flame lickers could be wrong. I know I’ve seen at least one.
Could even be a locally produced tractor using what was on hand.
There are
Hit and miss tractors
2 stroke
4 stroke
Steam
List goes on .......lanz bulldog tractors used a concept very similar to flame lickers
Wrong, most likely hit or miss engines
@Dave Micolichek Now that I think about it, it doesn't make sense for that engine to be used, old diesel's like u said were used.
I've seen a lot of people confuse Hot tube ignition for flame lickers and sterlings.
Now you'll remember china for Coronavirus
Instructions were not clear enough, burned my tongue while licking a flame
**facepalm.**
I missed the whole video. I was busy getting my yellow raincoat, pacifier, and vicks vapor rub.
Oooooooooooooooops 🙊
@@BrettonFerguson, Do you wear diapers?!
🤪🥵😂😂
Small adjustments make a lot of difference for an improvement in performance.
I miss working on motors, but unfortunately, my country is in a deep financial crisis and we have to work hard, I do not have more free time.
Do you intend to improve the speed of this engine? I have some tips that can help because I know a video of a Japanese who made a homemade engine that reaches speeds of 1200 rpm or more.
Leandro Wagner.
Hi Leandro it's been a while. That's really sad news because you were doing a wonderful job with Stirling engines. I still watch your videos from time to time. As for the engine, I guess better cooling (cylinder water jacket) would give it some speed. What would you suggest in my case?
Brasil é um lixo msm
Create an engine that does your job, then sell it to your boss 😉
Just curious, but if you lubricate the spinning connections and maybe make smaller but more dense flywheels from scratch would that help?
It's amazing how many natural gas generators we could build cause most usa households have 1 or 2 push mowers in the garage that don't work .
Miniature old time engine, so cool! I love this kind of stuff.
These engines are actually vacuum driven, the power stroke is the collapsing of the super heated gas in a flame. So they work way better the colder the piston walls are.
ohhh i see the nitro powered blower in the background
Incredible, just incredible. Not surprised you were able to improve it lol, I am addicted to this channel. Thank you.
So the suction created by the flame in the cylinder when the valve closes is enough to make the piston cycle forward again. And the centrifical force of the flywheels is enough to pull the piston back. Thus as long as there is flame there is power. Not sure you could squeeze much torque out of one of these engines based on the fact that all power is generated from suction though.
I was about to ask for the parts list or drawings. Then I saw the link, followed it, saw the price tag and got a heart attack...now I forgot about what I was to ask.
i need this for no reason whatsoever
Same
Thats gotta be the coolest Steam Punk i've seen yet.
Whoap, out of balance, easy fix.
I would like to see this hooked up to a motor and see about make it phone charger. :D
Probably has nowhere near enough power to charge a phone
About 0.001ft/bl makes 100 milliwatts
@@Intellistation6225 exactly lol it cann barely sustain it's speed when powering a led
Extremely satisfying watching you improve that
Simple and clever. You always surprise us with your presentations!
ahh, i see, it runs off the cooling of air. to start off, the valve's open and that lets hot air in, then it closes and the air cools and contracts bringing the cylinder forward.
The inertia of the flywheels bring the cylinder back and open the valve ready for another cycle
I don't think that's the complete answer though. The intake cycle is pulling _partially_ burning hydrocarbon vapor and the port closes just before the piston reaches the far end. I think the vapor continues to burn and give the piston an extra bit of shove through the remaining ~20 degrees of cycle to the end.
This hypothesis could be tested by using super-hot air coming through a tube; this could be done by wrapping a copper tube in a helix, heating it red-hot over a large burner flame and blowing through the other end of the tube with the outlet near the intake port.
i love "simple" machines like this
tubeist- dan Yes, I agree. Your answer is the complete answer, explaining in details the cycle.
But it has to be tested, because I could be wrong.
LegendLength maybe a add an exhaust system to it and add the flame to the inlet lol .....just get petrol one lol
I love how the engine is in ryhtm with the music
This is silly clever stuff. I like these little engine gizmo's that look like a home tinkerer's dream.
Thanks for posting.
Excellent job, well presented.
Treat your engines right, and they will work better than intended. Give em that caring treatment, fix em up nice if they are roughed up. Keep up maintenance. Give em the works.
I bought a 4 stroke and did alot of stuff to make it run good, still pretty raw looking but maybe one day ill round out all the edges and polish everything
very nice engine and fine tuning.
This sounds better than Honda.
Efficiency 0.001% Neat toy though.
That kinda harsh don’t you think, it idles alright, so maybe 20% efficiency.
But 75% efficient if you cook over it too
How cool is this?!! Would love to see one of these as a 4 cyl boxer style.
Ever think of changing to a water jacketed cylinder with a steam relief stack? Bet it would run as long as it had water to cool the hot gas, and fuel for the flame.
Its "A vacuum engine" thats working on a similar principle to a Stirling engine.
that's the first thing I thought was to machine the wheels round. you should add a little oil to the cylinder and piston walls.. cool video btw and good music score and filming!
no oil , a little graphite powder at most
Extremely cool video. Thank you. I would love to build this for STEM night with my children. Plans.
what a nice sound to sleep to
This is wonderful, thank you.
I have this engine I have a video up with it and it has the same problems but won't even run before warming up. Great work on improvement!
how does this even work??! its so cool!!! the fuel combusts BEFORE going into the cylinder! how does it wooooorrk
The piston sucks in the hot gases and then seals up. the gases now cool down and shrink in volume, pulling the piston back forward. that's all. Problem is: the minimum pressure would in theory be a total vacuum. means that the difference in pressure is just 1 atm, leaving this concept with almost no torque to work with...
ohhhhhh thx, bt couldnt u use it on a propeller since propellers dont have much weight resistance?
Alexandre Ahlstrom that might work for low revolutions. Even though air is light and easy to move, it becomes quite a burden for the propeller if it starts to compress. (it will compress around the propeller and expand right behind it again) You can't get by the fact, that the power of such an engine is still really low. And it's against the law of physics to assume the propeller power could be higher than that of the driving engine. Power is always the product of force and speed. Because the torque of this engine is very low, you woulf need very high revolutions to gain some output power BUT this engine is also very bad with high speeds, loosing torque, because the time to cool down the gases becomes too short to produce a pressure difference. So there is not only low torque but also a maximum speed.
It's a really useless engine and was never commercially used, even though it's about 200 years old.
oh lel k
wow u kno a lot about this
the cooling effect of the fins make the sealed gasses contract, pulling the piston.
Torch that he used in the end acted like forced induction and I like it.

Introducing the worlds faster lollipop licking engine!🤣
Could you use the engine to power something like a toy boat? Just for kicks.
I've seen videos where an toy boat is powered by a homemade engine that uses thermal exchange. Thumpers or knockers something like that.
No, it's too heavy and vacuum engines are only 5% efficient and a car engine is 40% efficient so not enough power.
These little bad boys are so amazing to me I love your videos that thing was cooking that was wild man and thank you for sharing always a big thumbs up👊👊👍👍👍😎😎
I really like flame licker engines. I have a flam licker engine kit "made in germany" that is a lovely learning tool - but very temperamental as I have to adjust it every single time I want to run it. That would be a great step up for me, as this engine looks why more robust.
This thing sounds better than my car
Not actually a stirling engine though, not sure why the ad claims it is. Its a vaccum compression engine. Completely different principle
Sir it's very Interesting toys and I like so much
If you make ene more vidio related to this vidio toys and also told prices it's very kind for you
I like your vidio and also your channel.
Thank you
the center of the flywheels were way off too. but cool little engine.
Neat Machine! Very nice design!
I see your next project in the back. :)
Next step build 6 of them on a common crank for a small rc boat
how much torque do those sorts of things put out? i can see that they have a decent amount of speed, but everything looks preetty frictionless, so there isnt much resistance. could you run something off one of them, or are they just cool novelties?
3:43 VTEC just kicked in yo!
I noticed that you re-installed the valve cover (top of head) 180 degrees around as the slit(?) in the valve cover is to the bottom instead of top, in your re-assembled machine. Any particular reason for this, and what is the point in the slit anyhow?
Nice Engine :). Sounds like Ursus C-330
This is like a nice kids internal combustion engine project kit
I have heard that running this engine for long enough will cause it to stop working because of a weak vacuum. Do you think cooling this down with ice or something would keep the chamber colder to the point where it would significantly increase the force of the vacuum, and therefore, rpm?
Dayum, the flywheels were toast
I'd love to see you building one of this motors.
Any reason that screw to the bottom right of the little bar that shifts up and down is partially unscrewed? I assume it was from working on the engine. Great job!
Im wondering, is the big scale model and, 6 cylinder engine, could power a mini car ??
pretty cool lil type engine
Congratulation! I like Very much! 😃👍
I see throttle control in the future!
Would you do one by yourself? A bit bigger or smaller maybe with some changes and application of this engine
You should put googly eyes and paint the licker thing to pink :P
Very interesting video. I really liked it and it was quite satisfying to watch. Keep up the good work!
nice work man!
When you hit the piston directly in the end, it caused it to over heat and expand too much causing friction between the piston walls and cylinder walls. I would not suggest doing this in the future as it can cause significant damage to the engine.

Could you use a Fresno lens to make that thing run with free energy from the sun put some Strong magnets on the flywheel and make some electricity with coils
I never really like these types of engines- stirling engine included- because they just offer 0 torque at all.. still great craftsmanship.
edit: well you bought this so nvm
Stirling engines and all external combustion engines do offer up torque, not as much as an internal combustion engine but it can and has been harnessed effectively
you can just turn speed into torque
You can just realise that its outdated technology and it makes for a better decoration than an engine
It's a fun thing. It's not like Elon Musk is supposed to be afraid...
DumpYourTelevision and internal combustion engines also need a push. This engine is not that powerful, but is simple and if you make bigger ones , they will produce some power..... There are internal combustion engines with less power if one of these were of the same size....
-Маховики бьют?
-Нее... 😂
Can i make this engine at home? It is work?
so how does swallowing flames made the machine rotate
Nice project carry on
Thanks very much for this video presentation.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.

super idea! what are the measures?
Good job👌
Que pasaria si se baña en aceite el cigueñal? Habria menos desgaste? Mas durabilidad y velocidad? Me gustaria hacer uno pero con el cigueñal en un carter
how much horsepower does it have?
Can it run both directions?
If you were to hook up a small electric motor/generator, about how much power would a small engine like this create
^Hear Hear^ Chuck a few Neodymium magnets together so they feed into each other and surely you could speed that thing up to buggery SEG style?
Jack Martin nothing this things produce about 0 torque
Very little IMO. I find it an interesting engine, running off of heated air expansion, not actually burning fuel. No fuel, no constant lubrication, probably makes it a interesting part of the development of the internal combustion engine. Either that, or China knocked off Otto and made something that did not work well. Sooooo, this is where it all started. :)
Car engines run off heated air expansion, they just make the air expand a lot more by mixing fuel into it and then burning it.
Its not actually a stirling engine though, despite what the ad claims. Its a vaccum engine and runs off a slightly different principle. And yeah , vaccum 'flame licker' engines are basically novelties
what is this for a spring?
after watching some of your videos i need to get a lathe to make some motors :)
Good job like everything
Hello I have a question. I rebuilt this engine and want to ask what is this for a feather?
The nitro engine in the background
Yay for "external combustion".
Really inspiring channel! Good video! Question about this engine, how many Watt could one derive from it with a dynamo, ballpark figure? Cheers!
so its an external combustions engine
I love what you did To the engine however using a flame from a torch will wear down the engine mic faster as it’s not meant for that rpm
You need to remachine the flywheels all over. You fixed the O/D but the holes and counter bore are off too.
Were Manson Engines like these used in North America over 200 years ago?
Even before Stirling filed his first patent
How about later lubrication?
I have one just like this, but I can't seem to keep a good flame. I use alcohol but the Wick just goes out. Any suggestions?
If you pit grooves on the piston, like you have on the cylinder casing, but smaller, you'll reduce the friction and also improve the seal slightly, dont ask my to explain the science behind it. Although it does work better with liquids and it's how a hydrolic valve piston seals itself it's going to help. because you cant get a piston ring and lubrication system that small.
You have a good know how to make of mechanic to improve the machine
What's the difference between this and a sterling engine?
how much torque?
You didn't true up the flywheel on the left?
Where you buy it
How the heck does that work? Seriously...
Sorry I'm *stupid* but that's cool and I've never seen one of those before. And I haven't googled it.
this thing would be fast for small RC's
