To beat the winter blahs, Ann and Ben Bednarz build an outdoor bar made entirely of chunks of ice every year, and this year, they decided to bring 3D printing into the process. The couple used forms they built with a MakerBot Replicator 2 to make silicone molds to create coasters and icy messages to dress up their outdoor establishment. To add more wintry fun to 3D printing, another man, Pieter Sijpkes, also tried his hand at 3D printing with ice. You can read the whole story here: http://3dprint.com/48659/minnesota-ice-bar/
