I don't think I would stand it on end. I think I would try using a short piece of PVC, and a 90 degree fitting to divert the fog upwards.
One can never have too many skulls!

the main problem with tilting the foggers any which way is the tank leaking and possible shorting out the heater. if you can detach the tank and stand it up right-side up separately, you might be able to stand the rest of the fogger pointing up.
my question then is: how tall is your column? and where will you put the chiller to have the fog fall back down and not fly away?

yes put the chiller ( use the dry ice one) on top of the column and run a hose from your fogger to it. if you chill it right out of the fogger it wont rise to the column

not sure yet still trying to plan it all out in my head LOL
both columns will be about 5' and only 3 sided b/c they will be up against the garage so i can place everything inside
trying to figure a way of mounting everything up high so that it'll just be a more or less straight run down
how far away from the foger should i put the dry ice for it to cool enough to get the effect i want ?

which such a limited space inside the column (not sure the dims on yours) i would put the chiller pretty close to the fogger.

Ok here is my full idea
I'm currently building a fun version of an electric chair
cant go scary b/c it's for the kids but we are calling it "REHAB" lol
I'm building two columns maybe 1' squared X 5' high to go up on the sides of the chair
these who columns will hold the lighted rehab sign
now with that said i might be able to get and foger installed around the same height as the sign and run the duct work though the inside of the sign and fill the crap out of the thing with dryice
if i can get it to work like this then the fog will have less then 4' of travel before coming out ontop of the column
do you think this will work?

well if i understand what your saying yes it will work. For just a 400w fogger. all you need is a 1 1/2" ID pipe 2' long full of dry ice with a drilled cap to make good cold fog. are you running a fogger for each pillar or one behind the sign split off?

I was thinking 1 maybe 2 units behind the sign branched off
i was thinking about building the sign as a box maybe 6" depth by 12" high
and putting the pipe dead center and just filling the whole thing with the ice
