I just got done building one of these based on this video and it does in fact work. The line that everyone says is a score line is made by the bottle rubbing on the heating element. That said, I think you do get better results if you do score it. I still have some tweaking to do, but it does work like the video.
yep. i havent made one and i know what that line is... everytime ive scored, ive ended up with bad cuts. hardest part is the actual smooth continuation, and the golden rule of glass cutting is ONE pass. i prefer a single strand of nichrome and rely on the thermal shock as it heats rapidly.

I think the “score line” people are seeing is the hot wire smearing onto the very hard glass. This glass-cutting trick is repeatable with a string soaked in fuel around a glass bottle, lit on fire, and then cracked with cold water. The thermal shock cracks the glass along the line of greatest tension, which is the very hot, thin outside line where the string burned or the coil rode.
I was not very good at crafts in school. Mainly because I've never had the patience for and the attention to detail as you show here. That's the difference, I'm sad to admit... :) I really like this!
Good design. Elegant and illustrates principles of alignment and jig construction. Well done!! If I build one of your units I would add a small ruler to the base, for more repeatable cuts.
why do people keep saying this is 'fake', and keep talking about a "score line"? the "score line" people keep mentioning is from the heating element. hot glass becomes malleable, and thus is able to be scratched by the metal element. It is breaking along the line that was heated, and then rapidly called. it's called thermal shock... There are plenty of other videos that explain this concept in other ways. for example; tying a string soaked in lighter fluid, then lighting it until it goes out, then dipping it in ice water will break exactly where the string is. did we score that before hand? no, we didn't... Thermodynamics at work! :3 great video! ^w^
Lololololololol it's like making a 2hr project to pour cereal.. just scribe and use a hot rod of glass or metal and it thermally cuts itself. Ive been glassblowing for a decade this vid is hilarious

I see a lot of people saying he scored the bottles without… testing the machine and filming it. The real deal here is that you should wear a respirator when working with silica dust. That stuff has it out for you, but he may have simply forgotten to mention it since it is a basic safety rule. Always know your PPE.
I can see the score line made with a glass cutting scribe first. The bottle doesn't have one, then it appears : @9:07 and is NOT in the same parallel as the heating coil. The coil on it's own cannot give such a precise cut - at least be honest about it.
@@copernicofelinisAt the time this video was posted it was March 31st. Even if an April Fools joke it isn't funny nor obvious which makes it at the very least an extremely lame attempt at a prank.
@@FreeTea4Me turn table? I use a Bethlehem bravo torch.. bench cool the glass and hold w your hands or use grabbers... i anneal glass in a kiln.. but you can use vermiculite.... glass does not conduct heat well so I think you're over thinking means to hold and rotate it
that's from the heating element. notice how it appears only after it's been heated and rotated multiple times. glass becomes more malleable at higher temps, thus is able to be scratched by metal (the heating element). I would suggest taking a step back and thinking for a bit before saying things so definitely. Whenever I see something that I don't understand, rather than assuming the other person is wrong, I first think of how I might be wrong, and use rational thinking to decipher my thoughts validity.
"Just Insane" - You are correct. The bottles obviously have a cut-line from a glass cutter scribed into them near the where the heater wire contacts the bottle. The wood-working looks nice though.
he didnt fake it - cheap as fuck to make it and try it - it works - im not sure what application your cut bottles will have tho.... not many countries make the fuckers any more so why? just why? dipshits...

@@pyroman7196 I mean, if the video was titled, "watch my bottle cutter cut bottles", then I can understand saying that is the 'start'... but its called "DIY Automated Glass Bottle Cutter". as in, the video as about the device as a whole, and not specifically about watching it actually function... 😅
You have amazing skills. I neither have the expertise nor does have the proper tools, therefore will you please built one such gadget for me and send across, I am ready to purchase it, its my humble request to you 🙏
There is some videos on YT about that, its a bit hard, coz every bottle has it own internal tension, what are unpredictable cracks glass when youll try to break it, and usually finishing "spiral cut" is done manualy with some diamond tools
I have a rather stupid question. I tried this kind of heating wire as well, even smaller ones rated for 1000W. But without stretching it first, it would directly short ciruit when applied with 230V. You measure only 400W that is quite a substantial difference. Is this only due to your regulator that stops too much power going in?
I was wondering about shorts, too - around 5:25, he pulls the bottom edge down with a copper strand; maybe that stretched it enough to eliminate most shorts?
In 57 years, I've never needed to cut a bottle into glass rings and probably never will. So, why did I watch this again? Also, it's it just easier and cheaper to buy them if you really need them?
Don’t cut silica blocks like this!! “Exposure to silica dust can lead to the development of lung cancer, silicosis (an irreversible scarring and stiffening of the lungs), kidney disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.”
I mean if you take the proper precautions to prep yourself and the area to prevent dust getting in your lungs and also clean the area thoroughly after the fact i dont see the problem.

Totally agree. A scoring line looks different
Tried that, really not reliable.
Or just score it and touch something hot to the line.... Jeez.

hilarious such a splendid video congrats and thanks ....🙋

I've cut probably 40 bottles, by far the biggest pain is smoothing the edges.
We need a jig for that!
Smooth the edge w a torch ese... all this is unessasary
@@ZomPaul2113 Turn table and something to hold the torch is what i'm thinking.

@@FreeTea4Me and js... sodium lime glass does not like to hot work much so you look for bottles made of boro or softglass which you can still find.
Love the precision of your homemade cutter. Would you build another one and sell it to me?
it's an amazing tool! cool!
nice glass cuting technic
Great job
this is really cool, i was thinking of using a microwave motor to make a rock tumbler, if you are looking for ideas maybe you could make one? :)
A very nice and beautiful build. I like how clean, functional and organized your tool is. Thanks for an enjoyable video
I definitely see a score line
which was created by the metal heating element after rotating.
Really good 👍🏼
Why would you need to cut a glass bottle for?
grav bong baby what else
Cut a fancy beer bottle, do some finishing on the rim, and you have a beer glass.
Whiskey! Like DUH...
Amazing. Time to upgrade my caveman bottle cutter.
This was cool! Thank you!
Thats badass
Most impressive is the score line on the bottle that will remain unnamed....
that's from the heating element. notice how it appears only after it's been heated and rotated multiple times. glass becomes more malleable at higher temps, thus is able to be scratched by metal (the heating element).

Suggestion: add some sort of a ruler to the bottle holder to control or measure how thick the glass rings should be.
Very simple n easy technique 🥴
My English is not good, so I watched it several times to understand what is explained in this video, thank you
Nice work
2:38 when doing that, you usually want to do both sides to have a perfectly centered slot
That is amazing, would you have one that would work with a square bottle (american honey)?
Fantastic !!!
That's awesome.
Great job very proffesional
🔵🔵🔵🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍🔵🔵🔵
But what would you use it for? I would make some nice drinking glasses, just need some water, fine sand paper and time
Magic !
Very cool!
Great job!

What is the brand / model of that tubular crimper?
questions why wood you want to cut a glas bottle
To make drinking glasses out of them… Duh.
to make other things out of it. why would you cut *_anything_* ?
My minds blown
I wonder if some narrow guage nichrome wire like they use to cut styro foam would work to make spiral cuts on a bottle,
There is some videos on YT about that, its a bit hard, coz every bottle has it own internal tension, what are unpredictable cracks glass when youll try to break it, and usually finishing "spiral cut" is done manualy with some diamond tools
its April right ?
Does this work on borosilicate glass? I hear bottles are more susceptible to thermal shock.
Wow, impresive.
This was extremely satisfying to watch
Great idea, well executed. Very impressive job.

Wonderful
Brilliant. Thank you for sharing.

Never mind the cutting bottles bit. What about how he just knocked up that Jig in Jig time.
Does the cut come out sharp?
yes. extremely.

Gif 1000$ to the man, who put on the table best commercial idea , how to make profit from this device, glass rings, other parts off bottle.
I’m always nervous about sudden heat vs cold contrast shock on glass, porcelain etc… I’ve seen too many shatter.
Awesome
But what do you do with cut bottles?
Don’t cut silica blocks like this!! “Exposure to silica dust can lead to the development of lung cancer, silicosis (an irreversible scarring and stiffening of the lungs), kidney disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.”
I mean if you take the proper precautions to prep yourself and the area to prevent dust getting in your lungs and also clean the area thoroughly after the fact i dont see the problem.

cut silica like that it’s definitely not bad for you trust me
@@Over_Saturated yes it is, *trust me.*
Don't do anything if you aren't aware of the PPE you need to do it safely...
