Some people ask "why are you hotboxing a lobster?"

Others ask why not. Others dare to wonder, to dream.

build a hotbox container, buy a volcano for 500ish USD, hook it up to the hotbox, call volcano and ask how to reprogram it for a 50 gallon container instead of a 1 gallon container

i'm sure there's cheaper ways, but i'm most familiar with the volcano

Instructions unclear, is a house a hotbox container? How many gallons is a house? I'm smoking weed about it.

Science isn't about why, it's about why not?
