I made a bunch of drinking glasses. I used a jig to score and hot water to pop it off so it broke smooth and relatively even. Light polishing and there you go. After doing it a while I got the feel well enough to do with beer bottles which I would then drink liquor out of and shatter against the side of my house during bonfires. Unlimited possibilities
It’s technically up cycling but like, yikes. For the cost of a handle of Jim beam and a shit load of wax, you could probably just buy a bunch of candles instead, so the end goal here seems to be to showcase alcohol brands?! Is this like when people fill their house with Coke or Mickey Mouse stuff?
I suppose I’m just as confused as you are. It would make sense to me if they washed the labels off; some of the bottles are visually interesting enough to warrant making showpieces out of.
please tell me why people cut these bottles, what is their end objective with this craft?
