The Desktop V-Twin~!

This badboy is a fully functional internal combustion V-Twin engine that comes in at only 5.5 pounds and kicks out 1500 RPM! Now I know what you're thinking, how do I get my hands on the sickest paper weight known to man? Check out Hammacher Schlemmer for all the purchasing details (*cough* $1k *cough*). Created by a German Engineering company and completely built from aluminum and stainless steel! RAWR! The engine runs on Butane fuel (the same stuff in a Zippo lighter) and kicks out non-toxic exhaust from its two exhaust pipes... If anyone is feeling like they want to buy me something, please feel free to flip the bill on this one!

Stirling Engine
written by jmanz6, February 17, 2010

I currently have a small external combustion Stirling Engine on my desk. I use it for demo work for a vibration analyser I sell. It gets lots of attention at trade shows! Not as cool as the V-twin though. I may have to look into that and see if I can convince the boss to let me have one for some "cool factor".
