Provided is a powder supply device including a storage tank in which an internal space that stores powder and a discharge port that discharges the powder from the internal space to outside are formed, a roller that has an outer peripheral surface formed of a rough surface and is rotatably provided, in the discharge port, to face both the internal space and the outside, and a doctor blade that is provided at the discharge port and faces the outer peripheral surface of the roller. The internal space includes a first chamber into which the powder is charged and a second chamber in which the doctor blade is disposed. The first chamber communicates with the second chamber via an opening. A partition member that restricts the width of the opening is provided between the first chamber and the second chamber.
