As you may know, I enjoy using my sandblaster for hobbies as well as cleaning rust from car parts. One of them is to sandblast etch designs into glass.
In this post, I wanted to show an interesting idea of using a bottle cutter to upcycle a wine bottle into something useful: an etched candle.
The below video shows an overview of the kit that we offer from our other brand which provides all the supplies to cut the bottle, sand the edge smooth and turn it into a candle. You would just need to use your creativity on the sandblast etching part which involves selecting a design and sandblasting it.
