How to make a Snow Gun

How to make a mini snow gun from simple plumbing parts. If its cold and brown outside, its time to make your own snow. An air compressor and a garden hose are the only other things you need. If there's no wind it makes a 20ft tall cloud of snow

It takes some time to play around with the input valves but you can get it set just right
I set my air compressor to 80psi, it turns on every 2 min. with the gun running
the 2 3/32 holes don't have much output but seem the most efficient. 6 3/32 holes had tremendous output but occasionally some big drops. A 1/4" hole was also a bit too big

Parts:
1/2" tee
3x1/2" close nipple
3x 3/8" close nipple
1/2" to 3/8" reducer
1/2" to 3/8" reducer bushing
1/2" valve
1/2" to garden hose (+ a 1/2" brass close)
3/8" ball valve
3/8" to 1/4" reducer bushing
1/4" air compressor barb
short pieces of copper that fit in reducers
Teflon tape

Its fun to play around with!
Be careful, if you have it set wrong and spray water everywhere and make ice it could be dangerous. I'm sure there are other dangers too, don't be stupid.

I know I already had snow, I built this when I didn't, than it snowed that night...

I know this is years later. I made the video but mine did work and it made some snow. I wanna thank you and giving this without you. I probably wanna do this and this was an amazing adventure for me someone thank you for that.

I tried this years ago. Mine came out about as yours did, but I felt guilty running a fairly large air compressor for so long.

Looks like a great snowgun. What are the specs of the air compressor you are running?

[ethanmartens]

What air compressor was used? Also what are the minimum requirements for the pressure washer and air compressor?

[lexiethers]

Is there any way I have do this without having to use heat to put the bits together??

[Anymouse]

You have a pretty cool channel there. Amazing stuff, do you plan more electronics?

[ondrejlauko]

The air from the compressor and cooled with you?

[surerollins]

could i make a larger one into a snowthrower?

[khkikqm]

dosent really look like snow... it just kinda looked like mist.

[alexanderstoyanov]

What would happen if I use pressure washer without air compressor?
