Thanks for sharing. I was going to use a torch to smooth and polish the cut end. But I kept reading that the high heat wasn’t a good idea. You got me on the right track now! I’m making some slides for my niece.
Thank you so much for sharing Jeff. I cut my own bottles and totally thought of using a pottery wheel to do my sanding with. Thank you for actually doing it and showing it can be done!
@@luminosity2083 I had to google it, apparently used for playing the guitar. had no idea. possible for other things, but that is what my search revealed.
I've bought 2 different glass cutters online- neither one seem to work. They look like they only will fit large wine bottles (maybe whisky bottles). Point is, I wanna make my own. You clearly have been at this awhile- I'm glad I have a way to go yet with this hobby!
Great video dude! I have a few bottles I've been hanging on to that you've inspired me to cut. One of them is similar to your whiskey bottle. Thanks for the inspiration bro.
+Shen Jen Loh-Lim after the glass is centered on the pottery wheel, I use pieces of moist clay stuck to the wheel around the glass. As long as you don't put too much side force on the glass while it is spinning the clay "nuts" work very well .
@ mefjoris - I love the mount that you have designed, especially how you can cut bottleneck slides AND drinking glasses from the same bottle. Do you happen to have those plans? I wondering how you made the adjustable piece with tile scorer attached. I didn't see and channels so I'm confused as to how you did it. I would love to replicate your design. Thanks!
Muy bueno excelente método para cortar botellas, gracias por enseñar. Muy práctico el aparato con el que haces los corte y se ve fácil de implementar si uno lo desea, no se ve complejo
Hey Jeff, question--you mentioned you're using a variable speed angle grinder. Do you have a recommended setting for this? Low as it goes, or a medium setting? Thanks
Sorry, I didnt mean no disrespect. The end product looks great. Just thought if you had a dedicated piece of glass might work a little better in the long run and you dont have to worry about the water soaking into the wood over time.
Professionally done , you've covered the main part. Cause a lot of videos show the cutting but i'm always thinking how do you make the edges smooth. My question is, i don't have these machines. I could buy the drill machine and the handheld polisher, will that be enough? also the bit used to hold the mouth of bottle (last part of the video) what bit was that ?
+Karthik Rao thank you. If you don't have the tools I have used in this video, you can finish the rim completely by hand, it will just take longer to do. The peice used to hold the neck of the bottle is called a drum sander. I hope this helps.
thank you it does help, going to be doing this very soon. So it's a visual and tactile affirmation to know when the edge is smoothed out? cause probably microscopically this method of cutting leaves minute shards? not sure if anyone has looked into it. Probably a high temperature application onto the rim to make it properly inert ? Don't intend to make this a long ass chat thread but these questions just popped up and wondering if there are any answers to it.
+Karthik Rao you will know the edge is smooth because you will see it happen as you go through the different grits of sand paper. After you flatten the rim the glass will be opaque, then will get more clear as you go through the grits.
If you happen to have a turntable you can use that. Sometimes turntables can be found cheaply at second hand stores or garage sales. A turntable with variable speeds is best. Also, dip your sandpaper strip in water frequently, that way you can avoid breathing in any nasty glass dust (micro shards). This method is pretty safe, but as with any advice from the internet, use at your own risk.
+Amanda Christian hey thanks. The pottery wheel just makes the polishing easier but it is possible to do with out it. You can hand sand the glass, using all the grits and have it turn out just as well. Just takes a bit longer, no problem.
nice video. watching it i thought "why polish it until 2000, an not use heat and melt the edges?".. possible? ...of course first flattering them an smooth round but instead of polish. will this work to use heat to make is glossy?
Hi, nice work, the technique here is fascinating. The sandpaper you are using, is it regular sand paper that you can use for wood, or is it another type for glass?
@@Elleffe Really? Could be worth trying out, thanks for the tip! You know about the other ones, where he used for instance with the angle grinder? 4:20
Lukas Smisovsky i can’t tell from the footage unfortunately. I would go with various grains of sand paper for metal, because I would think the one for wood is not strong enough. Give it a shot and let us know! Also please remember to wear a fumes mask, grass dust is very dangerous for your lungs (I know you know this, I just worry!) Good luck!
@@Elleffe Haha sure will give it a try and post back when I get to it! I was not sure about glass dust as a matter of fact, so I appreciate you brought this up, before I would have done sth stupid. This precaution should be mentioned with any video that has sth to do with glass cutting I would say.
Can I cut bottle useing Dremel glass cutting wheels instead of glass cutting tools what u r used in video, so I avoid hot & cold process to cut the glass ?
That's the same doubt i had. I think you can, but I think also the resulting edges could be not so perfect as with the diamond & heat/cool method. Anyway I would like to try both methods.
what difference would it make if i immersed the scored bottle in a boiling water and quickly immerse it in a chilled water instead of pouring the water?
+Amanda Woolley it is just an 80 grit disk for sanding metal. It is on a rubber pad on a variable speed grinder. There are probably better things for this task but this is what I had.
Thank you for responding. I got the grinder and a disc, but felt that a dremel would be better. I set mine up the same way as you did on the wheel with clay around it, but it seems out of balance....does your glass wobble a little bit too or is there something i might be doing wrong? Thank you for your help
I tried this method for butting the bottles, I have had no success. My bottles don't follow the score line, it cuts through, but sometime cracks creep up the bottle. Any tips or do you have any idea what's going on?
+Old Crow .44 without seeing your process and jig it would be hard for me to diagnose the problem. What I have found is that if the score line is not perfect the glass may crack. If there is an irregular thickness in the bottle it may crack. Different glass has different properties and my process works for the type of glass I'm using. Try insulating just above and just below the score line with a few rounds of duct tape before you put the hot water to it to keep the heat just on the score line. I hope this helps you. Cheers.
Old Crow .44 I've had the same problem before myself. I've personally found that taking it slooowwwww is the best method. Instead of aiming for a break after the first or second heat shock, I do it in small, short bursts (sometimes it takes me as much as 10 times). I've found this especially important on big bottles as they usually have pretty uneven walls. Also (and possibly more important), make sure to keep the water on ONLY the score line as much as possible. You only want to stress the score line, not the whole bottle--that's where cracks occur. I received a Kinkajou bottle cutter for Christmas, and it comes with giant rubber zip ties to act as guides. I'm not sure if they're available commercially, but I'm sure there are all kinds of rigs you can make to block off unwanted water spread. Like the video creator said, duct tape might help. Hope those tips are of some help!
when your scoring the glass you shouldn't stop each time it needs a constant rotation or you will have stress marks and when you crack the glass it will not cut cleanly and then buy a small diamond disc from bunnings and use this to smooth the glass takes only a few minutes not hours
mefjoris Will do. Actually l bought the pipe freeze spray to get rid of a skin tag. Make a hole in cardboard, put it over the tag and blast it. My tag was gone in 4 days. Nothing can stand up to liquid nitrogen but must be careful not to spray on good skin as it burns. Works on warts too. If you get chewing gum on clothes or carpets, blast with this spray and the gum goes rock solid and can be scraped off.
Bearmonkey13 I saw it done with a square Jack Daniels bottle in an other video. Cut a board the height of the cut and secure it to another board or a work bench. Then hold the glass cutter on the top of the board and slid the bottle upright along the cutter to make the line.
@@mefjoris lo estuve analizando, pero sigo creyendo que no vale para nada tu esfuerzo, creo que con las maquinas y los conocimientos que tienes podrias hacer cosas muy superiores, es mi visión

buy a record player also known as a turntable. Get a block of wood drill a hole just big enough to fit the spindle. Set it on the spindle and you have a flat surface to work on.
You don't go through this kind of effort just to avoid paying $3 for glasses at Walmart. You do it because you enjoy it and want something bespoke and high quality. Not to mention the satisfaction of making something genuinely nice out of "nothing". My grandfather would have called it "a labor of love", at least I think that's what he meant by that (:
A hell of a lot of work but nicely done. Both the glass and the video. Love the lack of BS and the straight forward approach.

How do you fix the glass to the potters wheel?
+giacoboh I set the glass on the wheel and put pieces of soft clay around the base of the glass to hold it down.
Hi, what holds the glass bottleneck fixed on the pottery wheel @ approx' 4:15? Tia.
Hey, great video. Can I ask what you use to hold the glass on to the pottery wheel?
+Shen Jen Loh-Lim after the glass is centered on the pottery wheel, I use pieces of moist clay stuck to the wheel around the glass. As long as you don't put too much side force on the glass while it is spinning the clay "nuts" work very well .
would a cheap 110v pottery wheel work?
Nice work! Do you reuse the 80 grit sandpaper or is it one and done?
+shaba doobie I do reuse the disk. I find that the fresh sharp disks take out small chunks of glass. The used disks almost work a bit better.
hi - this is a great video. how did you get the bottle to stay on the pottery wheel? I dont have one so pardon if this is a dumb question. thanks!
With small peices of clay.
It's Nice. Congratulations... I am from Brazil...

Hey Jeff, question--you mentioned you're using a variable speed angle grinder. Do you have a recommended setting for this? Low as it goes, or a medium setting? Thanks
500 rpm works pretty good.
The noise, The NOISE!! Also it might help if you put the sandpaper on a glass surface. Its much smoother and flat than wood
+Trogdor The BurninaTor using a glass surface won't change the end result. As you can see my method works quite well.

Thanks for the video do you ever have issues with the glass and clay sliding, i seem to have this issue maybe im putting to much water
Without seeing your process, its hard for me to diagnose the issue. If your clay nuts are coming loose, its either too wet or too dry.

It is possible but probably not the easiest process. Glass tends to crack if not heated and cooled properly.
This is pretty cool and all. I do have a question, though; What will you use the top of the bottle for?
+Rob B it is called a guitar slide and used for playing slide guitar.
Ohhh ok. Cool.
so what if i dont have a potters wheel? what else can i use for faster finish without sanding by hand?
