Hot bulb engine Jäders bruk Storebro

Storebro hot bulb engine, mono recording

Weighing two and a half tons this hot bulb engine is a beast! It was built in 1936 by Storebro mechanical works in Sweden and installed in a sawmill in Dalarna. The ground really shakes as it operates and unleashes its’ power. It takes about five minutes before the engine run smoothly.
