In this one day workshop you will: 

- Build your own Tin Can Stirling Engine 

- Learn where to source all the components 

- Learn about what Electricity IS and how to Generate It

- Turn Heat, to Movement, to Electricity, to Light!


INFORMATION:

This workshop is a Reuse and Upcycling workshop and as the name suggests the stirling engine is made of completely salvageable components.  We will provide all of these components apart from one essential part, which YOU have to bring with you to the workshop.

YOU WILL NEED TO BRING 4 TINS/CANS TO THE WORKSHOP TO MAKE YOUR ENGINE.

The workshop is led by Steve, who has taught many people to make Tin Can Stirling Engines.  Steve's aim is for each participant to have a working Tin Can Stirling Engine that they can take home with them to show off to their friends as a working model power station with LED lights.

The Workshop is held at the Red Brick Building Centre on the Morlands Enterprise Park, Morland Road, Glastonbury, Somerset, BA6 9FT.  There are facilities and a restaurant/bar for lunch.  

The Workshop is on Sunday 11th of October 2015 from 10am to 5pm.
