Description
Wanted to challenge myself with a design. Something useable that would benefit anyone creative. My wife asked me a couple days earlier "how do you cut a bottle"? Off to youtube I went,
where people were using everything from voodoo to tile saws (dangerous)!
So that is where it all started.
I used a 3D application called blender to create the design. The first 2 sucked because they only cut one size of bottle and were flimsy. I wanted super industrial sturdy.... Hence the 50 nuts and 5/16 rod.
This design fits any bottle and can grow to whatever size you want! You can also drop it off a cliff.
Hope you enjoy... those three people on the planet that might want to cut bottles.... and have a 3D printer to print it....
Who knows... My wife plants stuff in them... "Baby Green House Maker"... there, now it's green and will be popular maybe in portland.
