Title: Bottle/glass cutter
Post by: Cuba on October 08, 2014, 01:13:01 PM
I know lots of people want to make drinking glasses out of special beer bottles. Here is a Canadian made tool that will give a perfect cut every time...no more trial and error.

Just in case anyone is interested. I'll be buying one in the near future!

Maybe the club should buy one, since it's not the kind of thing one uses every day...

Even at the dollar store you can't get a cool glass for a nickel

Nice idea - board is cool with it so if anyone wants to volunteer to order this then we can re-imburse you at the next meeting and put it on the equipment signout sheet for anyone in the club to use...

Not yet... It's arrived to my mailbox in Houtlon but have't been there to pick it up yet. Hoping to get there next weekend.

Hey guys

Sorry for the wait... I had picked up the Kinkajou Bottle Cutter a while back but forgot all about it.

I've just added it to the equipment sign out sheet if anyone wants to sign it out. I'll test it out tonight so it will be available tomorrow or anytime after...

I def recommend watching these videos before using the cutter:
