Has anyone found a way to generate continuous smoke for chimnes or camp fires for scencery effects?

The smoke unit in the turbine could be used for a factory, not a campfire.

You could get one smoke generator or a fog machine and pipe it off through various sizes of surgical type tubing to the locations you want.  Wider tubing for factory chimneys and smaller ones for houses.  I've never tried it though, just a thought.  Huh?

I like the fog idea, running a smoke unit for any length of time requires you to continually add smoke fluid.  If you forget, you'll be replacing the wick pretty often.
