So awesome to hear! Glad I pass the wife check lol, I know what you mean! thanks for the comment!

This is a very nice commercial version of popular DIY smokers built in other videos. Using a paint spray gun pot and cap was brilliant because they're dirt cheap and many mechanics have extras lying around to make DIY versions based on this and other videos. Sure beats a glass jar wrapped in tape and a complete Harbor Freight paint gun is about ten bucks so you can harvest the pot and add the spray gun to your paint equipment collection. They use common cheap BBQ LP pressure regulators which can be placed between shop air and the supply air hose for the smoker. If you have a welding gas regulator (of the cheap or old variety you won't be welding with again you can use those for fine air pressure adjustment for anywhere that's desired. I prefer modular systems for easy rearrangement and multiple uses.

I just found your channel this last weekend and watched one of the videos where you used this machine to find a leak. Came back today to search for that video to get the brand of your smoke machine and found this video. Good stuff, keep it up.

Watching your videos really brings to life what I envision for myself in the future. I love BMWs, and I've always wanted to not only own one, but fix one as well. The newer BMWs just don't flip the "feel good" switch like the old classics do. I can really only do work on my car during my days off, and I already have half the tools to fix these cars from my networking job. So watching you live out my goal pushes me to strive for it even harder. Love the videos and keep up the great work!😁
