- I don't think that this source of an industrial level Stirling ''Engine'' has been shared here at Permies !

- as long as there is an approximate 100º ƒ difference between the 'cold pole' and the 'hot pole' the Stirling Engine is capable of

much work using "Waste Heat "

See link below -

Enjoy ! Big AL

Late Note :  A little more information on theSaab Stirling V4 275R can be found in this article !

Bill Snell : have you seen this one ?           http://mysteriousuniverse.org/2016/07/burning-bread-creates-aerospace-quality-carbon-foam/


Ryan Sharon : There is a story about a member here using " Wonder Bread " To make up a gasket material between the barrel sections on

a conventional barrel and a half barrel Rocket Mass Heater - Nothing has been printed on longevity of this material but I am told it was used !


For the good of the Crafts ! Big AL

--- Basically , I have lived a found living a 'Poo-less' life style to be 'no big thing' However - in order to tame my wild bushy beard - (see picture above)

That a hair conditioner , Specifically a leave-in hair conditioner for curly kinky hair is absolutely necessary to allow me to have a groom able beard!


It also greatly reduces the bits of food stuffs that I carry around with me through the day !  For the Craft ! Big AL

Antony Serio : Been there, done that ! You have the makings of a Science Experiment gone wrong . As an Old Combat Medic I would trust nothing from the bags !

The bags themselves MAY be Salvageable, You will have to try one (1) bag as a representative sample,and presoak in a bleach solution then wash them in a washing machine !

All bleach is the same, the labels on the cheap stuff from the "Dollar Stores" will give better directions on mixing ratios - or just google it .

Up here in St.Law County there has been an inter-marage between our local Amateur Radio Groups and the Fire Departments' Fire Police that has served this region well !

I am probably less than 35 miles away from you ( If Fort Drum was not in the way )

You might want to look at the Permie-type programs at - Local living Ventures - (We also have a Facebook page )

Good luck and good hunting ! Big AL

Jambo Reece : Seat Belts ! With the possible exception of BIG Curved Blades like Cutlases, Seat Belts are an easy answer to creating your own Individual/Customized

Sheaths for most cutting tools needing covers !

Since the Adaptation of Shoulder Belts/Harnesses For all seating positions in Cars / Trucks, such belting material is Ubiquitous.

Good luck and good hunting ! Big Al

Bump !!! - and a Tip of the Hat to Erica W. Big AL

Jason S.: Thanks for sharing , Im off to try it this myself , This may well be a better Tech than soaking ! BigAL

Dale : Yes I quite agree, especially with the novice campers. If you can't provide enough Body Heat to keep you warm over-night then there is something wrong with You ,

or with your sleeping bag .

A novice will expect the same amount of comfort as they had at home on their Jumbo Sleep-tronic and with a heated bag-liner start sweating inside their bag .

This will create a less effective bag at the same time the battery is running low causing our Nimrod to "turn-up the heat'' running the battery down sooner .


This might have some Hypothermic Treatment value For The victim if carried to the scene by The Forest Rangers and other 1st Responders


For the Crafts Big AL

Jason E. Smith : A couple of quick thoughts to share, Because this post will likely be seen again and again by future Fellow Members , the answers

to your Proposition are posted here as much for their Future benefit as it is for your immediate use ! Second, we need many more Members like

yourself that " Think outside the Box " - Without new ideas we will have no improvement in the craft . Keep them coming !


So if you watch video F.Styles shared (Mr.Teslonian) you only have to have a way to capture and store the resulting liquid/ Vapor Fuels,

then - You can pressurize that fuel and inject it into a simple boiler - In the video below this was gasoline injected at 140 P.S.I. -


https://youtu.be/5Me8b0ed59s


Two things to note here : This is 100 year old technology, and the video shows the entire boiler is being rebuilt after an on-road explosion !!!

So all you need is Some one to craft you a boiler, and the deep pockets of a Jay Leno !


AND because this is a Mobil Device You can call it a "Reproduction" and get a license to take it out on the road - much simpler than jumping

through the number of hoops to get a Fixed Facility Steam Generating Power Plant .

- I had some problems copy ing the link: I tested it and it works now ! Big AL
