while this diamond ring ice luge COULD fit on a finger, it’d have to be a pretty big finger!

a diamond ring ice luge design
This design is very similar to another design on this site, the ring ice luge. Oddly enough, when I first designed the ring luge, I didn’t make the connection to a ring that you would wear on your finger, I just though it was a cool way for the drink to flow through the luge. Since then, however, I had one of those “duh” moments and realized that it could easily be adapted into a design specifically for weddings. I may have had some help from another ice sculptor; I can’t remember exactly how the realization hit me. But I do know that it occurred sometime after I had carved the original ring ice luge design for several weddings. Sometimes obvious is not my specialty…
aside from the ring ice luge design, another post to check out that’s related to the diamond ring ice luge is my post about diamond ice sculptures.
The main portion of the diamond ring ice luge, shown above, is cut from a 40”x20”x4-5” slab of ice. You’ll also need an additional base piece, perhaps 20”x10”x4” stabilize the sculpture. Notice the thin piece of ice connecting the two supports at the bottom. Regardless of when you attach the base, it’s usually better to remove this portion after the main piece is firmly attached to the base. Below, you’ll see a diagram of the luge track, as shown from the back of the sculpture. This particular diagram was taken from the regular ring ice luge design, but the track for this design is nearly identical. Below that are photos of the luge tubing that you’ll freeze into the sculpture from the back to make it functional.
two “T” connectors are used to connect the lengths of tubing.
