It maybe safer and more interesting to build a Sterling. In that way you can learn an awful lot of physics without blowing your head off or burning your mom's petunias.

i had a biodiesel processer in my shop at school... 55 gallon drum of methanol in an explosion proof cabinet, proper ventilation..i always put safety first, stirlings... boring... i want fast.. cool... loud.. dangerous... as long as im standing in front of the intake( well not on it but you know) and the thing decides to frag any peices will not shoot forward but continue on their spinning path which will be stopped by 3/8 or 1/4 lexan or polycarb. a chemical fire extinguisher and video recorder will be by..
