Hey there all of you who love snow as much as I do! I dunno what it is about it, but I just really love snow and cold weather. I like to snowboard and ski, ride dirtbikes, four wheelers, etc. My friends sometimes call me McGyver because of the contraptions and machines that I build and mess around with, and also because give me some zip ties, super glue, and a soldering iron I can fix almost anything.As long as its not too complicated I messed around building a snowgun last year 05-06 winter, but I never really had the right parts or anything to make a real snowgun/snowmaker. It doesn't snow alot where I live, only a couple storms a year, but it is always sub 32F temperatures, and since I love snow and snowboarding so much I decided to jump into the process of making snow... So here I am! If anyone lives near me, and would like to share some of their experiences in snow making, let me know! Thanks, Dyer13, aka Josh, aka Black McGyver(my friends made that one up)

i'm not anywhere close to you (augusta, ga) and i know what you mean. it never snows here hardly at all. it doesn't even get that cold on a regular basis. I have found dultmeier to be a good source of parts since there is nobody here that sells hi pressure stuff. trouble is, they only like to sell to businesses. I've been having to use my 't' to push the envelope on temps just to get a little decoration on the bushes. since I use hi pressure stuff to build the 't' and a check valve in the air line, i have been tempted to hook the pw up to the 't' thru a needle valve to get more snow in those marginal conditions (i know, "never hook a pw t a 't'"). must be nice to have cold air
be cool, make snow
