Ice Balls
If I had a dime for every time I wished that my ice cubes were ball-shaped I would probably have $0.45, but if your ratio is higher…Taisin Japan has the product for you: Ice Ball Maker!

It doesn't look like much, but this thing really makes balls of ice.
I stared at this for a little while trying to figure out how it worked. Do you hook it up to refrigeration conduits? Does it need 3-Phase power? How many balls can it produce in one hour? Does it hurt?

Perfect cubes to add to your ice-making prowess.
