See what I built today?

Some of y'all who've been around the block will probably recognize this.

It looks like something that should be illegal in Utah

Nice that the handle matches the lid: very professional!

Hey, I just made mine last week.

My 928's HVAC control is beside it, second picture is the control with all the vacuum lines plugged in... understand why I decided I needed a smoke machine? The early 928's also use vacuum lines to control the door locks, happily mine have long since been disconnected... I hope, if I find smoke coming out of the doors I'll know where my vacuum leak is!

I'm confused..
Where's the bowl?
Shouldn't there be water in that thing?
It probably IS illegal in Utah...likely elsewhere as well...50 years ago (OMG!) I'd probably have ordered one of these without a second thought!
