How's this for a custom heavy smoker!?

This vaping colossus is an Armortek King Tiger ( :sick: ); but the smoker in it is a custom job, made one by Wiggytronics:

Perhaps the link that led me to this vid has been posted before, but if so, it's worth repeating. For all things 1:6 scale, do use this webpage, with its really useful list of suppliers, and custom builders in 1:6 :thumbup:

One of these days...eh? :shh: :thumbup: Armortek's there, and so is another Brit bespoke company- https://www.armorpax.net

Ah..oops, :{ Thanks Mick, I thought I'd already posted it.
:/ Time for a nice Columbian coffee, I think. :problem: I'll edit the post to include the missing link..

An even heavier smoker also appearing in Tom's acoustic smoker thread. For me, the combination of proportional sounds (and what sounds! :O ) with proportional smoke, makes this configuration highly desirable.
