<div class="">Haven’t seen this being done for ages, but it sure was a nice haze. I’ve seen the Ammonium Chloride heated with an electric frying pan.</div>

<div class="">Since childhood, I have read about using Sal Ammoniac in a Heating Cone to make theatrical smoke. However, I have never seen this done, nor even seen what such a heating cone looks like. A search for a "heating cone" shows up some cone-shaped
systems which you use to heat a bearing (I am guessing to expand it a bit, to put onto a shaft). Is that the sort of "heating cone" used for smoke?</div>

<div class="">A search on Youtube also turned up nothing except how to clean your soldering iron. I also searched "<span class="">ammonium chloride", since that seems to be the same stuff. But, again without success.</span></div>

<div class="">Anyone know of a site that shows a picture, or ideally a video of such a contraption in operation?</div>
