does it come in different sizes and how much does it cost?

Sorry, not sure where you can, but you can always clean out a gallon milk jug, fill it with water, and freeze it.

Call an ice company.

I'm guessing that LG wants the block of ice for either a shot block or for going iceblocking, but doesn't want to say it on a board heavily patrolled by law enforcement. freezing a gallon of water wouldn't serve either of those purposes.

just a guess though.

very true.

i am not skeered to say its for a shot block. obvioulsy a gallon jug wont work for this application.

i was just looking for some general info.

I just read up on iceblocking on wikipedia. That sounds like fun; a trip out to Mt Aggie might be in order

line a box with plastic (no leaks)

and fill with water. The smoother the plastic lining, the smoother the block.

...if you're smart, you can even find your own way to make a groove in it...and then make some intricate grooves that go through the block.

google "college station icehouse" call some numbers and see. They probably do iceblocks. We got one in houston for a new years party and it was like $65 for a 240 lbs block that was something like 10"x18"x40" I believe.

I do not know if it is still around but a few years ago Sparkle Ice had a building on Texas Ave and about 23rd Street in Bryan. The received their ice in block form and did the crushing and bagging at that location. People would buy blocks there. It may be out of business now but its worth a check in the phone book.

Don't get confused by an Ice House listing located at Main Street and MLK. That building has not made ice since about 1926 ... and most recently was a dance hall. (You have probably seen that big brown ugly building at the north end of main street.)

You're supposed to go ice blocking at Wolf Pen. Just make sure to bail before the cement at the bottom of the hill.

This is getting way overcomplicated. Look up ice in the phonebook.

Would ice blocking work on a parking garage ramp-especially one that is a few years old and traffic polished concrete?
