Re: The start of the Ice Tower
I think maybe I would like to make one in my yard. Maybe try hanging something from a tree and drip it down. It will have to be a very cold winter to pull it off here though. I do have an area of my yard that stays pretty shaded and is under some tall trees, so maybe I can. I bet Badger can make one in June

I have a brook in my backyard too, so I have a free water source. I will need some kind of pump though.
Maybe a windmill or solar pump

You've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
