    In this video i set out to cut some recycled bottles using a cheap bottle cutting jig i found on Amazon (no link) and use them in conjunction with led lights and candles.The bases are various things i had kicking around that i drilled and or turned on the lathe for the bottles to sit in

    Anyone else flinched when Doug poured the hot water over the first bottle? Nice one, again, Doug! You could be an arts and crafts teacher! You seem to know so many (fun) ways to do crafty things!

    Been cutting glass for 40 yrs and it can be temperamental. Try doing bottles in the Winter with warm water on the inside and snow on the outside, same idea but less work. 😉 Enjoyable video.👍

    Doug, you are in my top 5 favorite channels. Thanks for another great video. But, as Crafsman reminds us, "Don't forget your dust mask!" Especially when you are dry sanding glass.

    Ha ha, I knew it was coming, but I still jumped when it fell!!! Candles in bottle glass is very hot right now, many with lables.

    What a nice arrangement of candles and fairy lights. When I fist clicked to watch, for some reason, I thought you were going to make them into outdoor string lights.

    I've tried this wine bottle cutting with a jig that I improvised and it didn't work. You gave me enough information here to try it again with a commercial jig. I hugely enjoyed this video, and presenter Doug was really pleasant. Now I gotta shuck out twenty bucks for a bottle cutting jig and hope my wife doesn't tap-dance on my head.

    I came across your videos last week and you've really inspired me to start carving. I've used you're tutorials to carve a few wizards with my swiss army knife and have today invested in some proper carving tools. I've been planning on making a bottle lamp for a few weeks, and the fact that you've posted this today makes it seem like it was meant to be. Thanks so much, you're truly inspiring.

      Yes, I thought about using beer bottles for beer glasses. Just cut off the bottom and glue it to one of those table protectors that they use in bars and such. That could be cool. «In this house we drink beer straight from the bottom, you see».

    Hey doug had a thought. Using the lathe make some sort of a disk shape, incorporate both the top and the bottom but separated by the round disk, then add some slots in around the disk to fit the stem of some wine glasses. And pow now you have a lited wine glass holder. Thanks doug keep up the good work I really enjoy your videos.
