Make a Balancing Bottle Lamp

Sometimes called a floating bottle, balancing a bottle in a board is a lot easier than it seems. In this video I show how I did that. I also made the bottle into a lamp!

Can that glass bottle edge be flame polished instead of sanded?

[@HowDoYouDIY]

That's a good question, but I don't know the answer. I'm not sure if bottles are made from the correct type of glass to try that with. I haven't tried, but I would assume that much heat on a bottles edge would make it crack before it made a polishes edge.

[@alext8828]

@@HowDoYouDIY Try it and video it. Oh, try cutting the glass by wrapping enameled wire around it and connecting to a battery.
