Second Nature Snowmaking has been selling home snowmaking kits for more thank a decade. Starting this year, they’re giving away their plans for free.
With $50 in parts, some time to assemble, and a borrowed pressure washer and air compressor, you can be making snow in your backyard any time you want (and the temperature is below 30 degrees).
Check it out, and if you build one, send us some pics.
Today is one of the more exciting days in my home snowmaking
career, for two reasons. First, after years of selling snowmakers
out of necessity, I no longer have to do so. Second, this means
I can go back to how things originally were and give away the
plans to my snowmakers to everyone for free.
I’m not talking about the guys that have “free” plans then make you
buy the parts from them. Rather, I list the exact places we’ve
been buying parts from all these years so you can get the best
deals and show some love to the companies that have been so helpful
to us during the last decade.
Here’s a link to the plans:

The plans cover what parts you need and a few of the most
affordable places to buy them, how to assemble those parts, what
other equipment you’ll need, and how to put the whole thing
together to start making snow.
Once you make snow, head over to our Facebook page and share the
news. I’d love to see pictures of your machines in action as well
as your snow.
As a quick background, for the last decade I’ve been selling home
snowmaking machines to people all over the world. This was never my
plan, but money was tight and people wanted snowmakers. Now, I’m lucky
enough to longer need the income which is why I have made the plans
for our snowmakers free so everyone can enjoy snow, just like it
should be. No more selling, just lots of people enjoying the snowy
fun of winter like it was when I started 12 years ago
Last of all, many of you are probably wondering who won the free
snowmaker. We’ll be giving that away in a few weeks and will send
out more details then. Thanks for all your support these last few
years. Enjoy your snow
