Thought you would never ask. I did the mail box thing too, But only out of stainless steel lol. I will post pictures later.

I did this winter make my first snow making machine. Using a compressor and a pressure washer. I could have made it a lot bigger, but Mother Nature was not cooperating.

how cold did it have to be for the snow machine to work? also why was the compressor needed for more aeration?

The kids loved it. There is a science behind making snow. I will post a link for anyone interested for next year. Not to bring down the mood, sorry.

You can make snow @ 34 with a really low humidity. I do it right @ 27 with low wind speed. Anything above 10 mph, and your just throwing snow in the air. No wind, and in the teens are perfect cond.

The air compressor is to make the nucleus, a vapor. The bottom sprayer will mix the air and water to make a very small flake (vapor). Then the three upper sprayers that are all water. They would attach to the smaller droplets and turn to snow instantly, and make a bigger flake.

Mind you that was only three full good days of weather. Give me a good hard winter, and I'll start charging kids $$ to ride the dang thing!! Lol.

You can get all the stuff at Home Depot, Except for the nozzle ends, Those you can get online.

You have to get it right the first time, or your lines will freeze up in secs. Once it was up and running I had no problems.

Well ..... lets see it CP

You just called him Captain Planet. Holy sh!t. Is Can't Repeat and Captain Planet really the same person? Maybe all the arguments they've had were just multiple personalities manifesting themselves on the internet?

I'm on to you CR/CP.
