hey, I've FINALLY finished my entry for the laser cutter contest on instructables... I thought some of you might be interested.
http://www.instructables.com/id/The-Sterling-Engine-absorb-energy-from -candles-c/
It's basically how to cheaply and easily build a sterling engine from stuff you have around the house. 
Got a really nice video up too.

I saw that instructable and didn't even realize it was yours. I never really look at authors  Even though most of it is over my head it looks like a good detailed instructables. Good luck on winning.

This is my first sterling engine that I saw 
The video is so instructive and the music fits nice.
Congratulations. |

Thanks! took forever to get that right...  I was working with my brother on that (he did the filming and editing)
Had to stay up WAY too late quite a few times to finish that.
