DIY Ice maker using a chest freezer
We go through a lot of ice - especially in the summer time boating, camping, or loading up a cooler to hang out with friends. I hate having to run to the gas station to buy ice at 5 bucks a pop, so having an ice maker in my garage is exactly what I wanted. First and foremost, all credit is due to this guy who is the source of inspiration for this project.
