ICE BOX

Postby Mini Renegade » Tue Mar 16, 2010 3:42 pm

Whilst planning my second build ( a modern-retro style 2+2) I came across the dilemma, fridge or ice box?

I like the idea of an old fashioned ice box and understand the principles but does anyone have any information on constructing one? I need to know about the insulation, drains etc etc.

Thanks :D
