Keeps the drink cold without watering it down

2025 · MAKELAB CHALLENGE, WITH FRIENDS

Ice Slice

A 3D-printed cup holder you fill with water and freeze, so it keeps a drink cold without diluting it, made with friends in a couple of hours for the MakeLab challenge.

LOG · WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES

Ice Slice is a 3D-printed cup holder you fill with water and freeze: the frozen holder keeps your drink cold without any ice melting into it. It was made for the MakeLab challenge, whose brief was a 3D-printed item for the household or kitchen.

WHY

A few of my friends and I wanted to enter a competition, be totally unserious, and get something done in a couple of hours.

WHAT I WORKED ON

I did the making: the design, rendering, printing and testing. My friends did the PowerPoint.

WHAT CAME OF IT

Nothing really, just a good time.
