Just an FYI......
Halloween is coming up soon and the stores will be stocking up on fog machines if anyone is looking for one.
You can usually get one after halloween for about 10-15USD

I'm sure the vets know this so this is just a reminder to any other noobs like me:)

I have several around the house in various closets

I just bought one at Walmart for 20 bucks. The juice is 10 dollars for a half gallon. It is called "The Fog Machine" (<- How original) with UPC code 086786279243.

You have to thoroughly clean the machine after every use. I know there is a tutorial out there by Brewcitymusic on cleaning and the best fog juice to use. Its late, so all you. :can::tired:

You guys are gonna die laughing but this is my home made smoke machine

It's exactly what it looks like, a tin can on an electric hotplate, silicone rubber tubing, a syringe to inject a 50:50 mixture of glycerine and water. Works like a dream!

Do fog machines leave any residue behind? It seems to me the fog would end up all over everything and with repeated uses could be a mess.

I suppose you probably use these in a garage or something.

There is some residue left depending on how big of a space it is and how much fog is used and what type of fog juice is used but they claim it is nontoxic.
