A tour of the Ice Culture Inc. was arranged by Bob Schmidt for Probus members. On the tour, the group heard the stories behind the projects and learned how Iceculture earned its international reputation for quality workmanship and first-class service. They learned how 300 lb crystal clear ice blocks are made, watched carvers and CNC technicians at work inside the Studio Freezer, and experienced the ice sculptures in the 3500 square foot Display Freezer |
