Make Your Own Fairy Floss Machine


Fairy floss machines are often expensive, but this DIY version from the folks at Make will cost you far less, it’s resuable, and it uses parts you can easily get from the hardware store.

The video above takes you through the process from start to finish, including all of the components you’ll need to make your own: the mixing bowls, the fan motor, the propane torch and the sugar. It’s not a DIY project for everyone, but keen fairy floss lovers may want to have a go turning this working prototype into their personal fairy floss machine.
