I love being outside and building things, I can build anything with just a few ideas and tools. Intro: Adjustable Glass Bottle Cutter I have wanting to make a bottle cutter for a while now, just because I really like the idea of making glasses from bottles. I found a lot of designs online, but one thing they all had in common, is that none of them are adjustable. Now I want to be able to cut different types and sizes of bottles, so I came up with this design that can be adjusted for different bottles. Cutting glass bottles can be really fun, and drinking out of a glass you made is also satisfying. Plus you get to repurpose an ordinary glass bottle into something new and useful. Step 1: Materials For this project I used: - 1x4 Scraps - Glass Cutter - Polyurethane - 1/4"x2" Bolts - Wing Nuts - Epoxy - Wood Glue - Screws - Glass Bottles http://www.instructables.com/id/Adjustable-Glass-Bottle-Cutter/ Step 2: Cutting And Sanding After I decided how I was going to build it, I cut out the pieces and sanded them.

    Owner’s Manual Model #R1 Manufactured by: Rescue 42, Inc. PO Box 1242 Chico, CA 95927 Phone: (888) 42-RESCUE www.Rescue42.com © Copyright 2019 Rescue 42, Inc. Part # R1-INSTR-V1 Introduction Thank you for purchasing The Ripper™. The Ripper™ is designed to cut vehicle laminated glass (LG) windshields and side windows to access trapped or non-compliant subjects and injured or dying patients. Please read this manual in its entirety before using The Ripper™. Safe Operations and Warnings - Read Before Using WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, THE USER MUST READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS OWNER’S MANUAL BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Cutting LG generates glass chips and fine dust/powder. Users must wear their agency-specified PPE, which should include protective clothing, gloves, eye and possibly respiratory protection. LG dust (non-crystalline glass dust or Amorphous Silica Dioxide) is only an irritant dust and is not considered to be hazardous. While most glass fragments will remain on the outside of the glass pane, some will fall inside. While often not possible, attempt to protect occupants from fragments. Although the blades do not appear or feel sharp to the touch, please note that the shear blade oscillates like a scissor to cut LG. Do not place your fingers or any parts of your body in or on the blades while the battery is attached to the cordless Impact Driver used to power the tool. Do not use The Ripper™ for cutting materials other than Laminated Glass (LG); you may damage the tool and will void the warranty.

  • Technical Guide for Glass Cutting Section 2 - Three Basic Categories of Cutting
    Technical Guide for Glass Cutting Section 2 - Three Basic Categories of Cutting Three basic categories of glass cutting represent the majority of cutting applications – straight-line machine cutting, machine pattern cutting and hand cutting. In this section each category has a brief description of the various cutting functions. There are also listings of process considerations when setting up the cutters, cutting wheel selection guides for the various glass thickness and, some typical in-plant problems associated with the cutting process. Part 3 – Hand Cutting Description of Hand Cutting Hand cutting of the various glass covers a wide range of thickness, products, and degree of difficulty. Without a doubt, the finest quality of cutting can be done by hand. Hand cutting can most often be done by one person or by several people each doing the same job or by a crew of cutters doing one single operation. The chief tool is the cutter in which the cutting wheel is mounted and rotates on an axle. Cutters have many names: handles, hand stems, quills, etc. Some are inexpensive throw away tools. Most are precision tools using tungsten carbide cutting wheels and axles mounted in hardened steel wheel slots. The handles are weighted and fitted to the hand for comfort of repetitive use. The hand cutting operation is centered around the cutting table. The table is usually at least as large or larger than the largest piece of glass to be processed. It is also flat, firm, felt covered and equipped with everything the hand cutter may need to cut the product: vacuum frame load/unload, tilt table, air float, activated breaker bars, straight edges, squares, measuring bars, etc.

  • Working on Site
    VETRITE – WORKING ON SITE Thanks to how easy Vetrite is to work, it is possible to work and cut Vetrite not only in the factory using the designated machines but also directly on the construction site, so to easily obtain Vetrite slabs ready to lay and having the desired dimensions and features. On-site treatment of Vetrite must be performed using adequate equipment that complies with the regulations that apply where the treatment takes place. Follow the instructions included in the installation manual for Vetrite (available on Vetrite’s website: https://www.sicisvetrite.com/ ). This document provides the guidelines to follow when performing some of the most common on-site treatments that can be performed onto Vetrite. This document must be necessarily read alongside the above-mentioned installation manual for Vetrite, the indispensable tool for whomever wishes to work, move, stock or lay Vetrite. MANUAL CUTTING The simplest way to manually cut Vetrite is to use a glass cutter. Being Vetrite made of two glass slabs, the manual cut must be performed on one side of the slab and then on the other. Perform the cut by dragging the glass cutter along the desired trajectory of the cut. Use a geometric square for glass in order to obtain a straight cut. In case of a particularly long cut, lubricate the trajectory of the cut by covering it in oil for glass (like that contained inside the glass cutter) so that performing the cut will result more fluid and overall easier. 1 The manual cut must be performed in one single firm movement.
