New form of mechanical advantage: Off season research potential
While working with Dave(in the video) we ended up working and finishing the prototype of this Ice piston. Ice expands with a force of ~43500 psi and until now has not been used in machinery. Please enjoy the video and attempt to play with this on your own. If any community can innovate on this, it is this one.

Here is the video in question:
