My mom (RIP) would tell the story of getting ice delivered to the house. The kids would gather around as the guy cut the ice to size. He knew the size of each home’s icebox. She said he would always seemed to be a bit messier with the cutting when the kids were around - and leave lots of extra shavings for them.
Up at our cabin we had a wringer washer that got a bit of use when I was a child (we spent all summer there).
We had an icebox when I was a kid.
We would put a large square card in the window ——the poundage you wanted would show on the top of the card,and you would turn it if you wanted another size.
It would melt into an ice pan under the icebox.
