Try aiming the gun up into the air and make sure there is a half water half air mixture coming out of the bottom nozzle. Also check the wet-bulb temperature, 28 and below of a wet-bulb temperature will give you snow. And also make sure the humidity is 80% or below because my snowgun usually gives me ice when the humidity is above 80%
If you adjust the angle and shoot the pressured water higher the longer it has time to drop the more it’s gonna actually be snow by the time it hits the ground
You're doing it right.... It's all in having the right air water ratio... Next time try cutting your water back a little bit... And give more Air Time by shooting it upward more
I have personally had more succses with my snow gun higher off of the ground. it works better this way because it has more time before it hits the ground to freeze.
the issue is the bulk 80 degree tips with 3 gallon per min tips, thats 9 GPM that alot of water creating large water droplets. is your presswasher good for 9 GPM? what are your pressher washer specs? I would change you 3 bulk water tips to 65 degree 1 GPM tips. open your NUK valve just a little more.
Just like a ski resort At Vail/Beaver Creek we let em run 3-4 days, make a huge pile, called a “whale”, and then smear it around about 18inches thick with a dozer. That is then our base layer. Like you are learning, it needs to be about 25 degrees F to really be effective. Great experiment.
Awesome experiment you did great without much experience ❄️❄️❄️ Ya it’s grain & it bounces off you That’s a test for quality Cuz at -5c 25f and dry nights it’s game on. You can make really nice -10c n lower it’s like skiing on bearings or talc powder lol Some snow guns can pump up to 150 gpm make massive whales 🐳 -20c it’s when will you empty the reservoir unless you go to a direct replenishment then it’s a beautiful thing.
Willamette valley, Oregon snow. wet. In the cascades to the east of us they get the powder. cool idea. good luck with your toy. we'll know it is working when Kelly is out there with her ski suit and skis.
I think your gadget needs to be higher up and blow up and out. The snowmakers they use on the ski slope up in the cascades blow the air and water up at a 45° or more.
It needs to be a little higher off the ground and also pointed up more. Also close your water valve a little more. The water molecules need to vaporize and if it's too much water then it can't vaporize properly. But youre very close
The bottom nozzle needs to be on a 45 degree angle so it’ll blow through the other 3 nozzles. The bottom nozzle with air atomises the water and the other 3 nozzle water has something to condense on. And being higher the better
I was going to try a broke version using a short garden hose, the mister setting on a watering gun and a strong fan. How do you keep your hoses from freezing? Is it the pressure that keeps the liquid warmer? If so I’m not going to try my idea haha
Fun to try maybe less water I'm thinking and high air pressure I'm thinking that you should be able to adjust with the valves. If you can let me know. Thanks the video and you trying.
Been watching you since the American Farmer tv show. A lot of farmers run one manufacture of farm equipment. Why so many brands? Best wishes to you and your family.
We’re not married to any one brand. We like to pick the equipment that is either best for the job, the most well designed, or the one that fits our needs the best regardless of brand.
Man made snow at the ski resort isn't perfect either. They use the groomer to break it up and level it. I think your rig should be pointing higher in the air with less pressure.
I didn’t want it any higher because a 10 mph wind was carrying it away. But it would definitely make better snow up higher. That’s a good point about the groomers breaking it up. Unfortunately I can’t turn the pressure or the flow down on my pressure washer without burning the pump up. Guess I need a small cheap pressure washer for this. Or add more nozzles
Cut down the water and aim it straight up see if that helps. Heck you live where it snows I live in Mississippi we dont get but a inch or so every once and a while. Seen a few flurries a few days ago. I call that a Mississippi blizzard.. Lol. Vote trump!

WOW! I lived in Humboldt as a kid and have a lot of great memories. Good luck & glad i ran across this.

I’m trying to get rid of snow and you are making it!

Thanks for sharing! I always wondered exactly how the ski resorts did it!
Snow guns with on board air compressors usually run 80-90psi
Awesome experiment you did great without much experience ❄️❄️❄️

Who needs a snow maker in Michigan we got a big snow storm the other day
Try putting it higher up off the ground.

Bikini and snowboots the fury kind
Most snow Canon manufacturers use a 70° angle water nozzle for the best snow production
I want to make a fan gun style and hook the pressure washer up to the front ring. I'm afraid standard pipe can't handle the pressure washer pressure.

That looks like Alabama snow.

Hmmm, so now we know who to blame for all this ice and slushy snow here in Tennessee! LOL 👍

Flowing water is not going to freeze
Put your snow machine up in the air (10’) so the snow longer to hit the ground
I’m sure you’re right and I thought about that but a 10 mph wind was blowing it away before it hit the ground when I angled it up some
@@griggsfarmsllc Higher is not better, sometimes the water will evaporate before hitting the ground. 6' to 8' should be good in your area.
Looks like the snow we get in Rochester when it's 25-27°.
You are the one that put 7” of snow in my yard this morning!!!😡 You better invent a sunshine contraption now, dadgummit! 🤣🤣I’m in Murfreesboro.
Yeah I hear ya! I’m tired of it, lol!
Needs elevation. Put it up higher to allow more time to fall and complete the process.
Just come on up north a little ways there’s plenty of snow up here that everyone would be glad to give you
Fun to try maybe less water I'm thinking and high air pressure I'm thinking that you should be able to adjust with the valves. If you can let me know. Thanks the video and you trying.
Who needs a snow maker here in Iowa we have too much
Put it up like 20-30 ft longer fall time
Fun I would have tried to make a fan based snow maker. Man made snow is more like little ice pellets

You want to nozzle your snowgun to output 650psi per nozzle
Come to Batavia, NY, bring your truck and I'll give you a trailer load of snow for free !
It would all blow out before I got home!
@@griggsfarmsllc tarp it
Go vols!
Need to put it higher up in the air. It’s getting to compact in 1 spot.
what are the tips normaly used for so i know where to get them from
You should be able to get them from most any ag supply store. Just standard spray tips used in agriculture sprayers
how do I attach the tips to the gun?
Use boiling water as well. How water evaporates more quickly and helps form flakes.
No no no no not in this format no
Blow enough snow in your module builder, be great to make snow forts out.... snow maze ? Lol , come on up to Iowa, I'll load you all the snow you want
Awesome idea!! 😂
Do you make and sell them?
Make me a dab press at a reasonable price and I'll buy it
Dude ya gotta elevate it or point it into the air!!! More air time mire freeze time!!
Loved the TRUMP FLAG,,Ill be following you.
Trump Flag👍
Might have worked better if it was blowing down hill.

LESS WATER
You had me until I saw the trump banner…
