The blaster needs to be supplied with compressed nitrogen gas or dry air with a pressure of roughly 80 psi. The air flow is split into a high-pressure and low-pressure (20-25psi) line with a secondary gas regulator. A trigger mechanism controls the high-pressure line. Fine ground dry ice is loaded into the top reservoir of the blaster. The trigger mechanism requires some non-3D printed items listed below.

Bill of materials:

-2x 8-32 screws

-2x 8-32 square nuts

-Crushed dry ice

-Compressed dry air or nitrogen gas

-Gas pressure regulator (~80 psi)

-Low pressure gas regulator (20-25 psi)

-\u00bc in soft plastic tubing for gas input

-One \u00bc in push-to-connect t-connector

-Compressed air filter

-2x (5x15) mm compression springs

-One (2x8) mm metal/wooden rod

2 spring rods are required for assembly.
