35: An overall view of my two-car ice deck at Shumala. The
building is styrene novelty siding. There is an ice unloading door
at trackside, since this is not a large-scale manufacturing facility,
it needs to have ice brought in to have a sufficient supply.
36: I’ve posed a couple of commercial figures on my ice deck,
with arms moved to suit the tools. I made the bident at left and
a pickaroon at right, from brass wire. I glued the figures to the
deck with white glue, so they can be removed and repositioned
if desired. I don’t normally put ice blocks on the deck, but do
have a couple of clear plastic lumps which can be used. They are
sanded lightly to make them cloudy rather than clear; clear ice is
a consumer product and not necessary for icing refrigerator cars.
