Two horizontal welds are required for this snowflake piece.

This simple snowflake design showed up in a newsletter in 1996 along with a Reindeer & Wreath ice sculpture design. It consists of a straightforward stacked slab with a base added for stability.
Chef David Bromley sent in his version of the sculpture. Thanks Chef!

Another version of this ice sculpture incorporates a banner at the base and is great for holiday events. Use "Happy Holidays," "Merry Christmas," "Season's Greetings," or whatever works best for you and your event/client. I can't recall exactly what the name of the font was that I used for this carving, but it was a simplified Gothic-style font.

This design is also part of the Holiday ice sculpture design ebook, available on this site. The template is below.

I tried that snow flake with a 90 degree rotation so the joint went through the two horizontal arms and the base was two arms. Worked out great. You can see the result at my website. www.coolasice.ca thanks for the design.Saturday, December 3, 2011 - 11:38 PM
