I sold a snowgun to my friend and he has been making snow non-stop. He bagged it all up and put it in his garage. I know people, this winter sucks but wouldn't it be awesome to be the only person on your block with snow? All you need is a compressor and water. Look at this

Think about how sweet your backyardsetup could be if it was cold and snowy already, you could easily have a backyard park with a base if the temps stayed cold.

it uses up a bunch of water and costs a lot to have a snowmaker

are u kidding me..first of all..if ur on a well it costs close to nothing..second of all..town/village/city water is one of the cheapest utilites that your home uses..if not the cheapest!...i ran my gun for about 10 hours and i averaged it out to be about 7 bucks for the 10 hour run..and that includes the electricity for the compressor...


it not expensive..i mean come on ur maken snow!..not everyone gets the chance to make snow at home..its not an everyday thing..it worth the 5-10 extra bucks a month if that!
