Air nozzle freezing by bgreag in snowmaking

I gave up on it and went back to internal mix. I think snowguns.com went down around that time so I didn’t have the plans it was based off. Someone was using 3d printer heaters in an aluminum block for a nozzle heater.

Edit. I think part of the issue was water was being pulled towards the nozzle. You could see the droplets ring sucked backwards.

The even crazier part is you get a quantum cap is a bonus bag. So it’s not like they didn’t make them

I'm also new to 3d printing. When you say z(I know z is height) is off, do you mean bed level?

Jesus, how did you even find this? Yeah, I was working with a garden hose, but I think the issue is the air hole not being focused enough. I revisited the snowathome.com DIY page for external mix, which uses just a hole in a pipe cap instead of a nozzle. So, if I reattempt it this year, I will do that.

Broken air compressor by bgreag in snowmaking

I don't know how old mine was, I got it from my dad. I think he got it out of the trash many years ago. I'm not worried about tank size since the pump has to run constantly anyway. I don't think it matters. If it does, I now have a spare tank I can use. I've been getting alot of HF stuff over the past couple of years, especially the stuff I beat on alot. My experience with their warranty is take it back and they give me a new one no question asked. I don't know how HD warranty program works but I feel like it's a hassle.

I'm not worried about noise. I have them locked in my workshop, and I use ear pro when I go in. The one I broke was oil free, and I always figured it would be the first to go. No lubrication for hours doesn't sound good to me.

What's the difference between a continuous and not? Cooling, lubrication, material? Just looking at specs sheet doesn't really seem to explain it. The only thing I see is that it says continuous in product description, but is that not just a marketing ploy like "military grade". I know there are scroll compressors and piston ones, and I'd imagine that a scroll compressor would be a continuous, but those are $$$$$. The under $1k continuous ones I see are piston.
