My husband did this today and it was awesome. The kids had so much fun. We will be using this at our summer camp instead of paying $250 to rent one for a few hours. Thanks!
Awesome!!! I’m so glad it went well for you guys! I’m in the works of a small water activity video right now that would be fun for a summer camp so stay tuned and let me know how it goes at camp.
This was so fun! We just tested it out ahead of my son’s birthday to see if it worked ok. I only used one bottle of baby soap to save on supplies. I’m not sure I got the whole setup right. The mixture wasn’t bubbling until I took the hose off the bottom of the trash can. It then started bubbling and I wasn’t able to ratchet the towel back on. But it seemed to flow fine out of the side of the can. So I got a good result but wonder if trying to get your setup correct would have made the foam bigger or last longer. Not sure if any of those behaviors correlate with anything I may want to change! I was using an old 1hp blower which may not have been enough power and I only had a 15-20 gallon can
@@DIYTheRealDyl ok. . I tried today. Bubbles were crazy but after 30 min i was out of water. I think i used to much soap. N need to find a way to add water as it is running
@joegrappin4458 Yes they were 13.9oz bottles. It probably doesn't have to be exact, I haven't done much experimenting with what makes the perfect "bubble mix" yet.

Thanks man!
I trust this guy because of his SnapBack.
Thank you so much for this video on the foam machine. We made this for Canada Day, and it was a huge hit. We used it on 3 different occasions.
Oh awesome!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!
Wow so cool!!! 😃

What is the ounces on the bottle of the JJ shampoo? I see many options when I go to buy? Thank you!
What do you suggest if the bubbles are coming out too watery and not stacking? Thank you
I suggest a higher soap to water mix
Do you put water in the trash can and the baby shampoo
Yes, fill the trash can around half full and empty all 5 bottles into it.
Should the water be bubbling when you test it? Mines not
Water should be bubbling that means your weight is holding the blower hose down
thank you
You're welcome I hope you enjoy doing it!
Anyone try Mr. Bubble? Heard this could work too?
Haven’t tried would love to hear if it works
What was your failure so i don't do it?
The failure was the blower hose coming in connected and the seal on the trash can. It being good enough
@@DIYTheRealDyl ok. . I tried today. Bubbles were crazy but after 30 min i was out of water. I think i used to much soap. N need to find a way to add water as it is running
@@stephenccarpenter I have thought about making a trash can with a hose inlet and blower hose tubing built in, but haven’t got around to doing it.
@@stephenccarpenter put hose inside trash can before sealing as a backup
Probably didn’t say “that ain’t going anywhere” the first time when he ratchet strapped it down.
Do you remember what size shampoo bottles? 13.9oz ring a bell?

Less than 25 if you dont have to buy the stuff...😂misleading
