My First Successful Stirling Engine

This is a Stirling engine made from cans, a syringe, some .035" welding wire, a coat hanger, a tin can, a baloon, some steel wool, some heat sink, some aquarium hose, and some tape

@selftitled14 Make the crank shaft rotation smaller. Like if you cant make the full rotation your width of your crank shaft is too wide. Shorten it. Untill it makes the full turn evenly with a good movement of the displacer

I've been trying to make this but somehow I can't make it work, the problem is it does not spin properly, when I rotate the flywheel, the cranks wont even make a full rotation. could you pls help me? I really need this for my physics project,.. ASAP
