Hi Russell,

I know you have an interest in Stirling engines.

Are there sites that give plans that an amateur can follow to build a
Stirling engine of say 2 or 3 hp?

I have also been thinking in terms of a solar heated Stirling engine to
drive a 1 or 2 kw generator.

One idea put to me is to use power generated by the generator rectified
to DC in parallel to Rectified mains AC to power a hot water cylinder,
possibly with a PIC controlled load sharing.
