The first trial of the high pressure smoker with the new air pump, fine tuning underway.

Ignore the room full of smoke as I had been running on full output for five minutes to clear the system, the goal is to have high pressure with just the right amount of smoke with that visible smoke pulse as if it were from a full size internal combustion engine. The close-up shows that pulsing but I'm not telling how I get that.

Hello Phil,

your driver fits quite well even if his butt does not nestle softly in the seat.
Maybe you have to help with the file ...

The drivers instrument panels, obviously I have to compromise with the functional switches, so they are way over scale.

Mounting the panels and a quick look see if the lighting is sufficient
