^ Here is the description.
You simply add cubed ice, like the 10 pound bags you
would find at
your local convenience or grocery store and run it
through the hopper
and out shoots snow.
It is really a cool item and SnowGel works even
better in
combination. You can crank out hundreds of pounds
of snow per hour,
too. It takes about 4 runs to go through a 10 pound
bag in a little
over a minute... very fast. Basically, it turns ice
to snow as fast
as you can feed the hopper.
The machine itself weights about 50 pounds. It is
so new we don't
even have a name for it yet.
We have been experimenting with machines that were
going to retail
around $2,000. But, recently we found another much
more cost
effective solution that will retail around $595,
plus shipping.

WE just made our own legit snow machine. It's really not that hard.

all you really need is a power wahser and air compressor....my uncle said it's all about compressing the air

ya....compressing the air makes the water/air combo freeze faster, hence why pressure is needed to make legit snow

It needs to be 28* F wetbulb or lower to make snow with a snowgun. Check out http://www.snowguns.com
for more info on making your own snowgun (for the winter).
These summer ones basically grind ice into snow....cool.....but for 600 bucks? Hell no.
