There was one time when I put a mold filled with liquid water in a cold container and made solid water.

Bottles of carbonated beverages can handle up to 150 psi. Semi truck tires are pressurized to 110 psi. Freezing water in a pop bottle can cause it to explode, think about that!

Yeah, polar/non-polar extractions are about as far as my home chemistry got. But the LSA was good.
