Here is a link to our local news about a kid that has created a system. Looks quite different than the guns featured here.

I am ready to build, trying to figure out where to start.

Like i said in the other post, im SURE he had help. Theres no way he would be able to make it himself, he probably wouldnt be able to tighten up the fittings enough to hold snowmaking pressures

And actually, the type of he made is pretty common, basicly and SAH knock off.

It looks like a standard combo to me, and probably an external nuc? It looks like the air or water comes in from the top, that is all that I see that is different.

I think he could definitely build it. I was building snowguns and all sorts of stuff before I was even 10. Rebuilt a tractor engine when I was about 7, so I think its doable.

Mark, there are tons of discussions of new people asking where to start. Everytime, you will be told to first go to the Getting Started thread at the top of the Tee Gun forum. Then use the find tool to try to answer any basic questions. Everybody will tell you to start with a Tee Gun, and they're right. All you need is an air compressor with at least 3.2 cfm @ 90 psi, but hopefully more, and a normal water spigot. Now look up the plans and have fun!


Saying "I'm sorry" is the same as saying "I apologize". Except at a funeral.
