...at least I think I may have.

It's initial purpose is to water the lawn, but I wonder...

Is it possible to connect it to a fog machine and spread a layer of fog instead?

That would be cool !

It looks quite possible! As long as you can get the proper even flow, it should work!

For $20 I'd say it's worth a shot.

My husband actually bought one of them for our flower bed. It works pretty well for a sprinkler system, however, there's only about 4 ft. between the sprayer heads, and the whole thing is only like 15 ft. long, so I'm not sure that one would stretch completely across a yard. I agree, though, that the fogging effect would be awesome.

INteresting!!

does your fog mechine have treads on the output? It is a good idea, but I am wondering about getting a good seal between hose and fog mechine to garenty a good flow of fog.

Truthfully, I don't have a fog machine, YET. It isn't really in the budget this year. I just thought that the idea had some potential. Especially since my front yard is about 15' x 28'.

TS, I don't know if this helps, but this is what I did two years ago. I got the idea from this site (possibly from the tutorials, but not sure).

Your cemetery.

I like that what you found is smaller and wouldn't be as obvious, but I am not sure if the fog would create enough pressure to force it out of the sprinkler heads. If anyone tries it and it works, let me know. That looks a lot easier to store than two pieces of 10 ft x 4 in tubing

perhaps if I tried it with a fog chiller, and instead of using the built-in steaks, leave the sprinkler heads laying on their sides. That way the fog could just naturally seep out, not having to fight gravity to go up and out the nozzles as they would if they were in their upright position...
