I prefer dry ice and water. a lot cheaper and much denser fog.

This wouldn't be a problem. The PVC pipe doesn't make a tight seal. There is plenty of room for excess pressure to vent out the sides.

you have to be carefull with how much ice, over do it and the fog wont get out of the machine properly, posibly and break it

A honyecomb pattern on the end will make a steadier stream, it will iron out the turbulence cause by the smoke.

that tape won't hold for long when the water starts melting. try using better tape or maybe drill holes in the bottom of the pipe to allow the water to get out withour hitting the tape. but nice design

The fog density has little to do with the machine it self, It has to do with the ratio of Glynal/water. Wile the heating element the hotter it gets handles the ratios diffrently ultimately the liquid effects the fog. As for the sound of the machine, that machine was fairly quite. the hissing sound is standard for all fog machines includeing 600 buck industrial machines, and fixed with a nossle silencer. However the noise complaints you hear about cheap machines is from the pump not the hissing.
