Is it jus me, or are you getting more skilled with these installations? They’re starting to look almost as good as the better end of rtr, like MTH smoke units. I can only imagine how great the effect would be if your smoke units could use the fog fluid that the film industry uses in small smoke units (glycol and polyglycol I believe).

Thankyou! I guess practise makes perfect. That would certainly make the smoke thicker, but it would involve the use of heater elements which defeats the whole point of safe clean smoke :)

@@trstrains9330 I guess I’m just a bit reckless with special effects! At least it would be safer than that spectacular smoke unit in the gauge 1 Hudson that boils diesel fuel! I’ve been looking into buying aerogel blankets to solve the heat problem for rtr installations, but if your version gets too much better, I won’t gain much from that method.
