- Going to show you guys how to make your own smoke machine in this video. I do not take credit for this but instead saw it from another member and wanted to show it to my subscribers as well. Be sure to subscribe so i can show you how to use it in my a future video.
Dude. I watched ten of these vids. Your machine is the BEST. 1ST off...you made it large enough to generate a sufficient amount of smoke. 2ND, you had the brains to add a safety valve. Great video. Subscribed.
Thanks, I appreciate that 🙏🏽
Most fun I've had in quiet a while. Thank you. Laughing and learning is a great conbo.
I did notice one thing different about your Smoke Machine and that is that you used 22 Gage copper wire to wrap your Tiki Torch and your Smoke Machine seem to put out considerable more smoke than all the rest I watched and I can't help think that it could be due to either the Copper Wire Length and or Diameter or just the fact that it was copper wire you used. Good Job Buddy and thanks for the video.
its mostly just the amount of air flow from the compressor
Dang! Your smoke machine works WAY better than other DIY builds. 🔥
That’s is awesome! I was looking to buy a smoke machine, but I owe you now!! Going to make my own. Thanks for sharing.
I can't stop laughing 😆 🤣 😂
Good lord !!! Smoking down the house!!!!
He's mom is going to show up and show out.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even tho you didn't actually use the machine this video was thoroughly amusing! I'm going to make one right now! Thanks for the walk thru!! Keep it smokey!!
Thanks, always a little entertainment on this channel. 🍻
Excellent video and information. Thank you for sharing 🙏💪💯
I tried the soldering iron way but this is way better! Nice. Baby oil is non toxic. Which is why it is recommended.
This is great bro I was about to buy a smoke machine because I had check engine in my truck P0455 which is large avap leak, you just save me some money thx bro have a nice day...👍👍👍👍
Glad I could've been of some help
Built the smoke machine, found the air leaks in the cars EVAP system, tightened clamps and changed leaking cracked hoses. I couldn't have revealed those leaks without the smoke machine. Thanks. Also I used an air mattress pump to force the smoke through the system. That works great. My air compressor was broken at the time. Keep building and creating.
I've been thinking about an air mattress pump since i run 160 psi on my compressor, I'm just worried about the volume, ?
Great job Mr. Alhue, it smokes real good. I love it, I’m going to make one just like it when I get some money.
Hahaha now that’s a great DIY project , perfect for parties 🎉
Haha super smoker lol.
The ten dollar smoke machine guys guys are correct, but only if you already have most of the supply’s. I like your design and honesty in what it will cost to build.
That's amazing guy! I love this one! Thanks for the video. I'm going to make me one for my car to check on boost leaks. You're so funny as well on this video LOL! Thanks guy! God bless!
Lol. Im going to have to try building one. Great job
Well done Alhue. I really have to make one of those. Great instructions. Thankyou
Great idea On my next projects testing for a vacuum leak
Subbed and belled your channel. Keep up the skills 🕶️💪
A superb build sir.steve from the uk.
I love your humer as well.
Haha thank you Steve.
"Blood seed" 😂😂😂😂 since I moved from NYC to the south i haven't heard that in awhile.
I was about to build one myself. Once I got my cart full with everything i needed and saw the total at checkout i was like damn! I might as well just buy a smoke machine, which is what i did. I'm still going to build one in the near future just because i like projects like this. Great vid bro! 🙌🏿
Make a giant vape. Got it. Lol great video brother.
🤣😂
Man..thanks for the Idea...good video 👍 and fallow..btw. Nice tool box 👷
Thanks. Need another tool box soon, this one getting packed.
Wow. Your smoke machine really pumps out the smoke.
You can buy sewing machine oil by the gallon to have reserve oil on hand too if you need that much oil lamp wick will work as a wick. You can also seal the taps with silicone to protect it from accidentally hitting it up against metal when it's connected the a power source. Then just use mineral spirits to clean the terminals to remove the silicone if you ever need to take the stainless steel loose. If you have insulator nuts you could use those as well. Piece of rubber tubing works also. Safety always pays. You could use a fish aquarium air pump for a compressor.
i just steal some baby oil from the wife!!!
It works! An it smokes like a chimney!
Very COOL!
Put some dry ice and a tablespoon of salt water in it for Halloween! FOG that whole front yard up or better yet.. build two of them and show the whole block what you been up to!! Excellent video, steady laughs the whole way thru and even learned a few things! Nicely Done!!
And also tell them if it does start a fire don't put water on it or throw the lit liquid on dry grass..don't panic take a deep breath and blow it out
Nice Job!
I looked at at least 20 vids trying to find a diy smoke machine that would produce enough smoke to check for leaks in my AC ducts. All those other videos with rinky dinky smoke coming out! Yours will do just fine!😂 Thanks.
Great video! I need to get on this project ASAP!
Thank you very much.you’ve helped me a great deal.
Nice work. Just what I needed.
Thanks will build one nice job
Yep that’s neat I think I will have to make me one
LOL I just can't stop laughing, you're so funny!
Well done!
Thanks, not originally my video but glad I could introduce it to my subscribers.
Great job Bro, love it.
I wish you could bring that to my house! I'm thinking about using an air mattress pump, some tubing, and a cigar. Now I'm thinking of maybe a paint can with some charcoal in it.
14:50 Nice!
Thanks man for the detailed instructions , and above all, thanks for making me giggle/laugh at 6:40 AM . :D
Great video. I noticed you had the copper wire windings fairly close together. Any concerns that some of them are touching and shorting between them which would make your total resistance less and too much current flow? I have thought about using some enameled inductor/transformer winding wire since it wouldn't short if it touched, but you have to scrap off the enamel on the ends where it touches the bolts.
Thank you, its all a fairly cool science project so mixing it up with your touch can't hurt, or shouldn't hurt. I didn't actrually have any issues with mine and the wires. It smoked flawlessly with every use. I used it a hand full of times so far.
That was great brother.
Muy buen tutorial del amigo felicidades
Good job.
Nice 👍
Could I use copper? I both leads on my multimeter it’s creating a current but I don’t think it’ll w 2ohms
You need resistance wire (Nichrome wire) which is used to make heating elements or polystyrene cutters
Excelente video saludos desde Costa Rica
Great video! A list of material used will be very helpful, and links for purchase will be even better.
Good job
I'm a smoke machine after I get back from the weed shop. But seriously this is cool. An actual machine is like $800!
To anyone looking to make one of these, call around to your local vape stores. They sell coil wire in spools cheap. It works perfectly. 28 gauge. I paid $6 for It.
you did good with a few small alterations it will be perfict
great!!!
Thanks for the video. Cool to watch bro
Nichrome wire (resistance wire) ?
Most say if you are using standard copper wire you need a high Ohms to stop it from melting, how many Ohms are you using? I tried a Harbor Freight soldering iron but don't get enough smoke.
I used a solid copper wire i believe it was about 18 gauge and it was 2ohms. Any solid wire thats 2ohms in length will work fine and not melt.
I was seeing another mechanics vid on smoke machines ,and the guy said it was unsafe to have more than 2 psi of pressure in the system.
Well that's why it's important to have a pressure relief valve installed someplace in your system.
Did u use copper wire around your wick for your smoke machine?
Awesome!
Nice job explaining this one. 💪
Did u pour the baby oil on top of the wire? Also can someone recommend the exact guage wire that won't burn. I really need to do smoke test on my 02 camry getting CEL P0440 code EVAP leak. Thanks in advance.
Yes the oil was poured on top of the coiled wire with the wic running threw. You need 2ohms length of wire. I used solid copper wire that was 18 gauge. The gauge isn't as important as the fact that it needs to be 2ohms length of solid non stranded wire.
@@alhuegayle7550 Thanks
@@alhuegayle7550 Do you know the type fittings needed to connect this smoke machine one end to car evap port and other end to the portable air compressor that runs off of cig lighter in the car? I have 02 camry v4 and want to this test to find the EVAP leak as i am getting code p0440 and inspection is due end of dec.
@@syedfaz26 I'm not sure what fitting sizes you would need for your specific application. All you really need to do is connect a barb fitting because then you can use various size tubes to deliver the smoke. There isn't any one specific size fitting to go with.
@@alhuegayle7550 Thank you again
Veramente figo! Grande
Thank you, this was excellent!
Best one I have seen , lots of smoke 😂 can you put links to where I can get the parts to make the plastic chamber as can’t find it ?
All the parts came from homedepot
I thought this was Ocho Cinco for a quick second. 😆 Jokin
🤣
@@alhuegayle7550😂
I did exactly like you but failed ! I did exactly like you ! However , when I connect to car battery , the Positive connector ( Red ) is short , causing a zap . I try some other cable but still not working . The wire I used is Copper Wire 18 gauge m and wrap around the Tikki Torch ! You have any idea ?
You need to use an ohm meter and be sure the length of wire is 2ohms. Also make all connection points are screwed in and tight.
When's the follow up episode coming out? The one about how the smoke machine's gonna save us money...
What were you using for your smoke solution you may want to
Add some water to it 10 to 15% Should do it but I would test it out side somewhere safe and just increase the water % until it's SAFE. I was an Austin Fire Fighter for 25 years I'm just saying this thing could be a lot of fun but it also could be kinda Dangerous I wouldn't leave it unattended
But that's just Me.
But Great Idea..!!
Good job bud! But I would suggest u watch a few vaping videos on how to make coils an warp technique 👍
Hey man, can that wire that goes on the wick be stranded wire or does it have to be solid?
you need approximately 2ohms length of solid wire. The thin strand tiny wires can burn out easily.
What kinda wire did you use bra????
@@trealwilliams1563 Hey i used a copper wire from home depot that was approximetly a 32nd of an inch thick.
Just some metal wire I had laying in my shop. It's about half the thickness of a wire coat hanger. Definitely works! I've helped someone pass emissions already with it. 💪🏾
@@danieljackson1715 👌 nice
Lot of stuff to put together
What wire yellow one solder wire
ever hear of this thing called Ohm's Law?... That copper wire is going to melt the moment the oil cant keep it cool enough anymore.
I would highly suggest you get your self some Stainless Steel Welding Wire and an inline resister for the power cable for safety. The Wick should be fine as its fiberglass but the PVC wont last long to the kind of heat this device can produce
I'm not gonna sit here and say I'm an electrician but I can say that I used this thing multiple times and it works great everytime. People have built there's just as I did and love the outcome as well so 🤷. If it works it works but I understand what you're saying. Thanks.
Good job, I heard you say words like a Jamaican. I did build one but my smoke is not as thick, that is without the pump. I think my wiring may not be right.
Those white pipe fittings are super expensive now at Home Depot . All pipe fitting went up by 5X at stupid home Depot within 1 year, really they are taking advantage of consumer. SO this project now would cost you near $150. Since the pipe fittings are priced like GOLD now, use an alternative can of paint instead.
How come mine caught on fire ?lol i did the exact same as you
Omg I hope no one got hurt. I know you said you did the same exact thing but something somewhere went wrong. I would check the type of wire you're useing, the length and Ohms of the wire, and last I would check the input voltage. I've used the smoke machine on several different occasions and it's never cought fire.
What were you using for your smoke solution you may want to
Add some water to it 10 to 15% Should do it but I would test it out side somewhere safe and just increase the water % until it's SAFE. I was an Austin Fire Fighter for 25 years I'm just saying this thing could be a lot of fun but it also could be kinda Dangerous I wouldn't leave it unattended

But Great Idea..!!
my man knows his cookies! "Thinsters" are so deliciously addictive, You can't just eat a couple. (in the Video, See them on the bench in the background)
Any wire
Using that in a club is no go because of the baby oil. You don't want people slip on the floor once that stuff is all over that's a problem so I want to ask if you can just use the smoke stuff in that
Bruh
Can I use electrical 22 gauge wire? Good video dude
How do you measure the ohms?
Too funny
Can you make one for me ?
Sorry u don't really have the time to go get eveything and replicate. The instructions and details are pretty strait forward for you to knocked it out in a day. Take the list of required items to home depot and have a rep pick it all out for you.
Jajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja. Good job. Congratulations. Jajaajajajajajaja
Any follow up vid where you get to use it?
Sorry, I used it a few tines but never went into making a video. Actrually still have it till this day.
@@alhuegayle7550 ok
Sweet
Cool
Your machine really smokes more than the other videos I've seen. The others all tell you to measure the ohms of the wire and cut a length equal to about 2 - 2.5 ohms. Did you measure the ohms on your copper wire or just guess at it? I like the way yours puts out a lot more smoke! You could get a gig with a band, putting out smoke on stage! haha
Haha "gig with a band" , I actrually did measure the wire length to 2ohms. Still got the machine and it still smokes alot. Maybe there's a slight twist in the items I have, not really sure why it may smoke more than the others. Good luck with your machine.
Sweet idea. I'd probably suggest using resistor wire like they use on vape coils so the copper coil isn't just a dead short.
lol so funny
Yep ,that'll smoke out yer house alright .And the neighbors house .Yep
Also tell them how important it is for the wires on the tiki wick not to touch, Because it will start a fire.. I seen a guy use 4 tiki wicks in order to separate the wires.
Nevermind, I was using the wrong type of wire, that's why it lit on fire..
I just used some resistance wire that I bought..I guess it's for vapes.."26 Gauge nichrome 80 wire" at 2.5 ohms of resistance.. it works fine now. I tested it out for 5 minutes
A small DC air pump, a cigar and a piece of hose. Smoke machine for less than $15.
Yo bro
My bolts heat up so much it melted the pvc 😓
🔥🔥🔥
Mine melted too. Going with a diesel glow plug
Man you are a jamaican
You can use a pump from a fish tank
Bro I hate to tell you this but Walmart got smoke machines around Halloween for like $35
Thanks for the info ill look into that. Haha because I see that lots of guys melt the pvc so idk if I want to attempt this.
