Using this method to make a bong using like 6 glass stuff I got at the thrift store

[@chrisst8922]

Years ago there was a tool called The Bottle Chopper. It was in the 70's. I think we bought one for Dad, the kind of present you bought when you'd got fed up buying socks. Made of flat steel one part scribed the line whilst the other fitted inside the bottle where you tapped at the line until it parted. There was also some sheets of wet & dry so you could smooth the cut edges. It might've won a design centre award. The award for the quickest placement at the back of the cupboard from where it never came out again.

[@uturniaphobic]

I remember that thing on TV. way back

[@BeasleyStreet]

Still got mine...

[@juanitasanchez3814]

[@kingdomrunt]

Wow! You my friend are OUTSTANDING! I just went through umpteen hundred (exaggerated) videos of how to cut a bottle. All of those videos were long and boring, leaving me to set it all down. Then I see your video!!?? Brilliant!

[@nicolo9093]

Very good, but you should take care to wet the glass and the paper when you're sanding it. When sanded dry, the siliceous particles can go into your lungs and there's no way to get them out so be careful

[@theopowell8815]

Wow thanks so much for this info... jeez that's scary

[@rivahkillah]

I'd have recommended a mask

[@Yoshi92]

@@rivahkillah Wet sanding >>> wearing a mask You can additionally wear a mask to be absolutely safe, sure, but doing it wet is the important part. People who work with glass everyday don't use masks, they simply do it wet. Because Silicosis is no fun disease at all.

[@tontonkaldoche3481]

Actually there is a way way to get glass particles out, it's called cremation. Works everytime.

This is the cleanest cut I've seen in any tutorial

[@141sharon270]

Cool trick, out of all the KZbin video's I've watched on bottle cutting, I think this one gave best results. All the ones that doesn't use a glass cutter comes out pretty shiny.

[@alasdairdouglas7485]

That was amazing, that was just was the easiest I've watched so far, and I've watched dozens, will be using your method and no expensive tools required thumbs up for you tks👍

[@colleenankersmit7858]

This was so helpful! Loved it! No bs, just a straight forward way of explaining and showing the results. I'll watch more for you!

[@WandaThePanda]

I love tutorial edited this way. No music, no nonsens. Amazing. Couple questions: - The tape can be of any width, right? - What's the best way to reattach the two pieces? I'd like to make a glass candle, it doesn't have to look perfect and 100% neat, but can the two pieces be reattached together once I put the wick in place?

[@bustabee143]

I'd say epoxy to put it back together

[@WandaThePanda]

@@bustabee143 thanks! But how would that work? Is a thin layer, like glue, enough or does it need to have some thickness?

[@Wolfe_Metals_Stacking]

@@WandaThePanda quality epoxy is usually tougher than whatever is being "glued" together with even a thin layer. The material will fail before the epoxied joint will.

[@tynewlin]

Best use for a Budweiser I've seen yet.

[@brianbassett4379]

In the 60s my Dad used a steel rod, sharpened point, with a 90" bend to slide down inside the bottle and tap the etch to start the crack in the glass. He would continue to rotate the bottle tapping the etch from the inside and you could see the fracture crawl around the bottle. Even a single small crack would speed up the process of using hot water to get it started.

[@welcometoorefuge]

It was called the Fleming Bottle and Jug Cutter !

[@canuck2444]

That's pretty cool, guy. Same concept as cutting tile. Did not realize this would work on round objects!

[@micklatham3425]

Awesome - thanks for the video, this is just what I need. I have a round whiskey bottle that I think will be funny to convert into an oversized whiskey glass! Also, like others have said - I really appreciate the no-nonsense approach to an informational video. No over the top anything, nothing extra that isn't needed. Just info and demonstration.

[@pikifrino]

Very professional cut. Thank you

[@Fragile_Moonlight]

Just a suggestion. What if you clamp the cutter to the board to get a close enough precise cut. But thank you for the video! Helped a lot! Just got my glass cutting set and can’t wait to use it.

What is the tape anyway?

That. Is. Neat! Came here to find a more elegant solution than using plastic bottles to water my plants. Now going to get on making these to add to my terracotta drip stakes.

[@bobariawan1914]

Thanks a lot! It's very usefull

[@jekrecluse]

Thank you! Brilliantly simple methods!

[@miksUSA777]

Tape acts a barrier against temp changes when it is shocked. Even if you score it, without the tape, areas near the scored line hv a tendency to break & misaligned. more sanding then. Try w/o tape & u will see. make vid.🤗

[@omniavincit7]

Es cinta 3M con doble pegamento, pero cualquier cinta sirve, no tiene que ser esa.

[@mmercier0921]

Using a soldering iron to fracture score lines is more reliable. Maybe I had inconsistent results with the hot/cold water method because I did not use tape.

[@victorprangecampos74]

Muito bom!

[@deepikadj22verma62]

Wow that was a perfect cut 👍

[@veryworks5963]

[@psun2968]

Hi, Thanks for this video. I watched this video a couple of times before attempting this. How much pressure do you use when scoring on the bottle. I can see the score line but it didn't crack along the score line. one end crack upwards and the other downwards, so missing each other by an inch. Also, how often should i change the blade on the glass cutter please. Thank you

[@veryworks5963]

Try to keep the line straight, repeat it a few times, and just scratch it a little bit. Pour boiled water and ice water into that gap. Try it , You will be successful.

Great video, thank you! Question: what does the tape do?

[@possiblyvi]

I believe it’s for a better, more clean cut. You could do it without ofc, but I noticed my bottles look nicer when I protect the rim with tape.

[@ivanerasmus1405]

@@possiblyvi You could use a rubber o-ring too - it is is reusable too!!

[@nilscoram]

It's usually meant to be something that creates a channel for the hot water so only that section within the area gets hot, no idea why this person used tape

Did you use any sort of cutting oil with the glass cutter?? I've looked through the comments and don't see anyone mentioning it. I'm subscribing to your channel, great video!

[@Kampbell300]

Water is the best

[@mentalcowboy1986]

Cutting oils best not water as the cut needs to be wet all the time if its too dry it cracks

Wow! Never thought of that!

[@castanedagus]

I’ve seen this done before. But what’s the tape for?? Isn’t it easier to just stick the bottle into a boiling water pot??

You don't need tape to cut a bottle...it's a fallacy.

[@streetlegal008]

Also would need to grind the inside edge of the glass with a rotary grinder with fine sandpaper for a smooth, rounded finish.

[@jaywilliams5138]

No need for a grinder. Fine wet/dry sand paper will do the trick by itself. Very easy.

[@davebowker1113]

Soooooo cool Let’s start doing more with glass bottles rather than just throw away!!!!!!

Great worked first time. I got the outer rim bevel now how to get the inner rim beveled?

[@dougnice67]

great video! just what I needed to turn my beer drinking into and even more positive experience. Question: What's the purpose of the tape???

[@mentalcowboy1986]

It reduces any cracks and takes the shock in the glass a bit

[@mentalcowboy1986]

Also acts as a guide too

[@mikelm6198]

Maybe I missed something but what is the tape before

[@tomgillespie195]

Helps stop the stress fracture from becoming jagged as it protects the bottle only a little thing but can make a difference!

[@pappurao7745]

Good ! Was there any need for the taping ?

[@charlesmurray1220]

How about that inside edge? Shouldn't that need grinding or sanding?
