Sno-Gun

Ok guys and girls. I know some of you out there know how to do this, and I need some advice.

Home made snow-guns. I think I have a general jist of what to get:

- air compressor

- pressure washer (water)

- proper hoses

- valves to connect the two hoses (water & air)

I'm just wondering. Is there anything else I need? Also, what do you guys suggest concerning the right 'mixture' of air and water. Is there one? Or do I just put full blast on both valves? I'm also not going to make it with just one nozzle to shoot the snow, I'm seperating it into two or three nozzles for direction space. My friend did this and with what he had (what I have too) he was able to pump around 50 cubic feet/hour. Anyway, please gimme ur two cents.
 
the one i made is like an L, hose connects to the top pipe which has a valve on it, and the bottom the air compressor with a vavle, i just kinda messed around with the valves until it looked the best, and i have three holes drilled in a metal cap at the end, it seems to work good
 
the T-guns make like an inch of snow and hour in a small area. its really not that much and if you hve city water its expensive
