Halloween Shot Glass

Step 3 Working on your block.

You can usually tell by looking at it if you see any bubbles. If the bubbles are there or moves around then you have more freezing to do. Once the ice is done take it out and put it on a plate. A lot of plates can't handle heat so be careful. Once you have a plate, a soldering iron, and bucket of water and ice or just water then you can start working on your ice block. Good Luck.

PS. I don't know how hard or expensive this project is. Don't get frustrated or break your budget. It could be easy and not expensive. It all depends. Something bad may happen to what ever you use. I also take NO RESPONSIBILITY.

Dude, what is it you're trying to accomplish here ? You appear to be melting a hole on a block of ice with a soldering gun. There's so much going wrong here, I don't know where to begin. Soldering gun: probably a bad idea. Bucket of water to "cool down the gun to make it safer to use": probably a really bad idea.

How are those bad ideas?

Actually,I didn't mean to be so harsh. I liked your project idea. A soldering gun is basically a high amp controlled short with a heat-resistant handle. A little water in the housing with a damp handle and that thing could really light you up. I'd like to see somebody have crack at it with a Dremel. Less wet, probably easier to shape and no worry about contamination. Cheers

Contamination is a big concern with this project but I'm making it more of a arts and craft project then the making of a tool or drinking vessel.
