nearly finished just waiting for the oil can to come from ebay and the welding tips. all the rest was beged so the end product will have cost me £5 hope to get it finished for the week end to try it out.

will be takeing the strimer smoker as well just in case will let you all know how it fairs up

 

with the oil can the ones sold on the smokers have plastic components you need an older one with brass fittings if when you get yours its not brass pm me and i will send you brass pump

 

also i has to drill and bolt the can os because when it arrived it had already snapped off the spot welds

Just a heads up for anyone wanting to make one of these, Aldi are selling the weed burner from Sunday 10th for £12.99 incl bottle.

 

 

Nice one,Im gonna go get one in a bit and have a crack,looks ok for the summer. Nice one Broomy. Laughed my bollocks off when it made a noise and the little dog scarpered. Wonder how my patt will react as shes a bit clicky with some noises,like air rifles and catapults...

[bobcullen79 1,495]

Got the burner from aldi,finally found some bundy tube,£15.01 for 2,1 meter lenths(just incase) and 2,6mm to 6mm couplers,£7.50 of that is postage and vat. From B E S. Couldnt get an oil can any where of the shelf,so ebay it is. Anyone know what I need for the business end,whats the thing called that the No. 3 tip screws into? Im up to £29 and I still got to get the oil can,tips and wind deflector.

Yes Parksie it is a stoke accent you can hear lol. it looks like you have paid way over the top for the bundy tube mate....if anyone needs cheap bits go to www.BES.co.uk they sell all the stuff like fittings, tube etc.

 

I am now using brake fluid with a touch of baby oil to make a very dense and nasty smoke.

I realise strimmer engines seems to have better bolting properties, the reason for this is the toxicity of the fumes and nothing else. Like humans if you sat in an enclosed space with engine fumes it would kill you so you would try to escape unless you were trying to do yourself in. So the pussy fluid that they sell is non toxic and non flammable so whats the point. You need the nastiest smoke possible that is gonna make them suffocate if they dont get out....SIMPLES.

someone made a point about fog fluid used for disco's, while these create a great dense fog they are completely harmless chemicals(i have looked into it myself.

my recomendations so far has to be as follows......

 

low viscosity motor oil/baby oil @ 5%

brake fluid/baby oil @ 5%

 

I havent done this but go in your garden shed with your smoker and fill it with smoke, which ever one makes youget out sooner is the best lol

Yeah my little russel is a funny little sod. She attacks the hoover, shits herself at the lawn mower, nails anything that moves thats furry. weirdo little thing. but game

For anyone who is interested in buying a rat attack smoker mk2 please read the following message i have sent to arthur carter and shoot right products. I will be posting a full tutorial on how to build a mk2 smoker with exactly the same products as the "official" one for approx £30 and very little time and skill.

 

Hi, I was interested in buying a rat attack mk2 smoker but the price staggers me. It is made up of a paresene weed wand £20. An oil can £1.50. A copper coil £3. A perforated tube £10. A piece of poly tube £0.25 and a couple of brass fittings and about an hour of someones time to put what is other peoples products together then sell it for £100?

Please explain?

Thanks

CHEERS WATER BADGER THE ONLY PROBLEM I FOUND WITH THE OLDER TYPE OIL CAN IS THEY DONT HAVE FLEXY TUBE SPOUTS. AS YOU SAID THE ONE'S OF EBAY WILL DO THE JOB FOR NOW BUT THEY ARE NOT BUILT TO LAST A BRASS PUMP OIL CAN WITH A FLEXY END WOULD BE MINT ILL START LOOKING ATB

[dazbo 15]

ALL FINISHED AND WORKS A TREAT TOTAL COST £5 /OIL CAN EBAY £3 1X SIZE 3 AND 1X SIZE4 WELDING TIPS AND ADAPTER £2.

HAD TO DRILL AND TAP A FITING I GOT OF A MATE WHO SERVICES COMPRESERS TO TAKE THE ADAPTER THAT HOLDS THE TIPS (ONLY BIT THATS NOT SIMPLE)

USED DEISEL ENGINE OIL SEEMS TO WORK WELL / MAKE SURE YOU HEAT THE COIL UP WELL FOR BEST RESULTS.

WILL BE TAKEING IT OUT SATURDAY ALL BEING WELL ALONG WITH THE PETROL SMOKERS TO SEE HOW IT DOSE.

IF WE GET OUT ILL POST AND LET YOU ALL KNOW.

AT £5 I CANT LOSE WHEN IT COMES TO TAPING FRED A STEAR,S GOT NOTHING ON ME.

 

CHEERS BROOMY FOR PUTING UP THE POST AND VID

Does the wind deflecter have to be perferated? Wouldn't it do a better job of deflecting the wind if it was lef solid?

[LolaPat 49]

If it was solid the flame may go out because there would not be sufficient air
