Does anybody make their own snow?
Original Message   Oct 6, 2005 11:57 pm
We had a really dry miserable winter last year in Spokane, and I have been toying with the idea of building a snow gun. I really like the HAGO External Mix Snow Gun described here:

I have a suitable air compressor and pressure washer - the nozzles, valves  and brass hardware wouldn't cost over $50. The gages would add $20 or so.... I know the kids would like to be able to sled even if Mother Nature doesn't cooperate. I like this design because of the low cfm requirement - my Sears compressor (9scfm @ 40 psi) has a 50% duty cycle and won't tolerate continuous running.

Has anyone on the forum built their own snow making weapon? Howzit do? Can you comment on the one I linked, or can you recommend a better design?

Thanks.
