You can make a snow gun fairly easy. The only major problem is with frozen tubes. First off temperatures need to be below freezing. Run a hose from a tap in your house or one that isnt frozen up. You need to get a part for the hose that forms a mist, you can get it from good garden/hardware suppliers. When the water comes out in the mist it freezes in the air and lands as snow. Doesnt make too much snow but easily enough for a rail setup.

^That will NEVER work, you need some form of air compressor to make the water droplets extremely fine. Misting from a hose or even pressure washer will give you nothing but ice.
