You got a rock... cool! Did you splat it yet? Merry, merry, merry!

PS Scott - you have way too much time on your hands..even with that many kids!

Well, I must admit this Christmas almost wasn't "normal".

You see, I've had 30 years of white Christmas's ...it ALWAYS snows.

Except this year.

So, I had to take matters in to my own hands.

Unfortunately I only had the snow gun running for an hour (it warmed up too much...I started making snow at 7 am, finished around 8.) But, I do have a snow man left in the yard still:)

For the curious I found plans online at SnowAtHome.com , and made the SG1 and SG3 from the free plans (admittedly the SG3 nozzles cost $52). SG3 is definitely the way to go.

At least it's one way to have "white water" in front of my house...and make sure I keep my "perfect record" of white Christmas's

Adam
That is so cool! You amaze me!
How much water did you utilize and did you use a pond or public supply.
Also did you track the wet and dry bulb at time of production? Just interested in relation to temp and production! I might have to look in to this.

But then we are just now getting some white stuff!

Aw shucks, you're right -too much time. I keep chipping away at it, converting a little bit more...

I checked out the snow machine, cool, but if I made it, it wouldn't last here! http://www.snowathome.com/weather/snow2 ... &submit=GO

Mybe no white Christmas, but we did have the Christmas Eggnog French Toast... With maple syrup...

You did THAT in ONE HOUR!?!

DUDE! That's awesome!

Looks like the nozzles are the cheap part. The air compressor & pressure washer are the budget killers

Cool though. Very cool

I'm just jealous.

Great poetry Scott!

hehe, don't encourage Adam... next time he makes snow make him record the sounds to go along with the images - homemade snow certainly isn't a quiet process!
