Anybody have any experience with homemade snow makers?
I ripped up my fish ponds cut a path through the bamboo and I want to
make a sled trail.
Any suggestions?

When I was younger, I waited one winter for a huge snowstorm...soon
enough it came. A 23" dump on top of an initial 0.5 to 1.0 inches of
sleet. It was perfect. With a variety of shovels I carved out a
meticulous little luge-type of thingee, complete with a rockin' jump
at the end...about 300' long descending down a hill. Every night, for
two weeks straight I would fill up the tank, and set it in our garage
to get as cold as possible without freezing. Then I woke up at dawn
the next morning and coated the base and sidewalls with water until it
iced up really thick.

Then I busted out the old rusty rail sled and had the best time ever.
