2. Cut Ice Cubes in Half

You will need an ice cube, a piece of fishing line with a weight tied to each side, a tray, and a container for the number two on our list of cool experiments to do at home with household items.

Turn the container upside down and then put it on a tray. Place the ice cube on top of the container, and rest the fishing line over the ice cube with weight left dangling over the side of the container.
