    OK, I don't think that we ever got a real thread going as to what all is needed to make a Foam Cannon.

    I know that FMINUS has one, perhaps he can put together his list of all tools and materials needed to build it.

    Thanks!

    I will get right on it. I think I went the hard way in doing it though. OrngeZ has a better way, maybe both he and I can post our processes

    That'd be great. I am dying to get one, but it seems like no one has an "out of the box" solution.

    It's like you have to buy the Karcher here, then a bit in the UK, a bob from Russia and the rest from Japan.

    Someone needs to put kits together and resell them!!!

    I bought mine from Justin. But you only need 2 or 3 pieces to make it work.

    i love my foam cannon...even came with 16oz of their supra snow foam II....with shipping it came to like 150 bucks i think...either way it was completely assembled..needed no special adapters..and works like a champ...its better than having to buy adapters and hoses and waiting on four different suppliers to get things done...best you can order extra adapters for whatever specific brand PW you have...and it only took like 4-5 days to come in...well worth the money...and it is just fun as hell spraying down shaving cream like foam all over a car...

    I agree, I want to make one not buy one. I was at a mom and pop pressure washer dealer in Shelby NC and he said he can get me one for 70 or 80 bucks. What he show me look about like the ones these guys sells. I still think you can make one cheaper then that. Somebody sent me a parts list and links for it on AG via PM. But my stupid self deleted it by mistake, and I forgot who sent it. Dang it!:mad: at my self... I don't think Killr would let me ask who sent it...

    Sparkie, you can always post that question on Autopia and see if anyone replies there!

    If I can get it done for cheaper than $150 by going through a few different places, then it might just be worth it.

    I just hooked up with shadybreal from AG and he got the things together and it has been shipped to me. I got the foam cannon, new trigger gun, quick connects and a 50' hose all for less than $200 including shipping. I have access to quick connects and adapters at work so when I get mine I'm going to see if I can make up the quick connects for my current 25' hose. The one I got is going to be connected to a 3000 psi gas powered pw. I'll be sure to post some pics about it when it comes in which should be in a few days.
