8. Ice Cutter

Ice cutting is an ancient profession that still lives to this day, especially in the third world. Ice cutter was a common job before refrigeration and freezing made it into our homes. Ice cutters would typically go to frozen lakes and cut up ice blocks. They would then deliver the ice to the customers.

There were many ice cutting companies that involved storage and supply of ice. The target market was both household and wholesale companies that needed cold storage for food, fruit and other perishable items. Ice cutters were often farmers who’d use this as their winter profession.

These days ice cutting is used for creating snow sculptors.
