Inner Workings Of An Icemaker

Have you ever wondered about the inner workings of the automatic icemaker in your refrigerator?  Probably not, if I had to guess.  All you know is you plug it in and you have ice in the tray when you need it. 

Well...I have news for you.  There is a lot of work that goes into keeping that tray full of ice that is ready to be used upon your need.  One day I found myself curious as to how those things actually make ice and get it into the little cubes we so love.  I opened my freezer, started taking it apart piece by piece.  I was determined to figure out exactly how this thing worked.  I was astonished at what I found.  I ran to get my camera to take a picture, so I could prove to everyone else what I was seeing.  Here is that picture!

Now, as Paul Harvey would say (for those that know him), you know the rest of the story.  :)

I bet you think twice the next time you get ice from your freezer.  For that one moment, you'll think about whether she is hiding in there somewhere!  LOL!
