Okay so take your second piece of scrapwood and place your popsicle on it.

Now draw the shape you want to create on the scrapwood. (picture 2) I just drawed at random but remember that melted ice doesn't spread cornershaped or anything like that ;)

Then use your figure saw to saw it out. Tip: it's easier if you just do this piece by piece and cutting away excessive wood with your regular saw. This way you don't need to bend in weird angles to cut it. Also regulary place your wood in a better position. This will allow you to saw more easily

After that just sand it.

Now place your popsicle back on the shape and decide where you want the popsicle to be. Then trace around your popsicle and saw out the shape of the popsicle. Precision is important here because everything you cut out to much you'll have to fill up later...
