Chim-Scan auto-focus/tilt camera through a thimble
We walk through the process of inspecting a thimble chimney — a task often avoided due to its difficulty. This example, untouched since the early 2000s, highlights key techniques for effective inspection. Using a camera with three-inch wheels, a Blowfish device, and a maxi flex piece, we navigate the chimney with control and minimal strain. We demonstrate how to guide the camera upward, handle obstacles carefully, and return it safely to home position. With patience and proper handling, even the toughest chimneys can be inspected efficiently and safely.
