One of the things I really wanted to do while home this month was to get some of those little projects that keep getting bumped down the triage list completed.
For example, I received a glass bottle cutter a couple of years ago as a Christmas present and only used it once to cut a Bauhaus Winterloper bottle in to a beer glass.
So this morning I did the same to a Bauhaus UberDuber bottle to make a matching set. This time around, I know the process a lot better and I have a mini blow torch instead of a candle. Turned out pretty good. These are the idea type of bottle to use for this. Labeling is painted (printed) on the glass directly and the glass is that thicker champagne style bottle including the “punt” at the bottle. I guess I could use sabrage to open this type of bottle in future. Maybe I should try that and record the results…just don’t tell Alton Brown.
Definitely use sabrage for one in the future. I want to be there for that.
Maybe on something not too expensive though for the first one……..
Yeah definitely not an UberDuber. It’s funny because the Surly bottles, while awesomely painted really suck for making glasses.
