I haven't done it yet, but I do want one. I have a regular modern deep freezer for in the basement to keep meat, but upstairs we use a 1946 Westinghouse. :)...
Your lucky to have dry ice available. We have nothing like it around my part of the Country Side. As I mentioned we can by really small ice blocks when the...
Yes from the photos I see it was your post I referenced. I would love to have a Crosly Icy ball, but it seems a bit cumbersome to have to deal with moving it...
These aren't the greatest shots but I had them and so I am loading them to the group for those who may be interested in the later design Ice Box styles. Larry...
Larry, that is a whole lotta Ice you have there in the box. I can see now how that much ice making would infringe on your Mom's Freezer. For my 1930 model 2...
Thanks, the photos look good to me. I didn't know their were later design ice boxes. I have two old GE refrigerators, one single door and one double door I ...
Plenaka You have a good question. I assume from the literature and fact that all the later "air conditioned" iceboxes as they called them use the vertical...
Hi Joe, I mentioned in my last post that I have some literature on Coolerator and Vitalair and some ice industry ads I can put in an album in the photo section...
All this talk about iceboxes and temps, I have to wonder why the unique density attributes of water are not used to maintain temperature, both in an ice box,...
Bob, I too have started playing in my mind with some thoughts about how a system of cold air, perhaps piped in from outside might supplement the icebox, or a...

Hi Bob and all. I took a quick look at your message. Sure its a hobby now that I could use other methods. You mentioned it might get too cold. I sort of had in...

Hi Dave, I am the builder of the DC refrigerator and have built five others that were installed in sailboats. You're right about the incorrect terminology,,...
Hello Group; I looked at this and it sounds good for some applications, but I think for such a small wattage item it seems to make more sense to think about...
