LED bulb lights for wine bottles

The major issue with using the standard string of Christmas lights in your wine bottle is the high heat that the lights generate. If you use a string of thirty five lights the bottle will be too hot to touch. Maybe not so hot that it will burn your fingers, but quit warm. The longer you leave the lights on the warmer your wine bottle will be. It could be a safety issue if you sell your lighted wine bottles and someone picked it up and was startled and dropped it. You may want to check to see just how hot a wine bottle can get depending on how many strings lights you inserted. It may surprise you. What about using LED string lights? LED string lights are brighter and burn much, much cooler. They will last longer and will not cause your lighted wine bottle to get too hot. I prefer using LED lights in my wine bottles that I sell or make as gifts. They have one major problem. A string of twenty LED colored or clear lights cost about three or four times as much as a string of standard Christmas Lights. The extra cost makes selling your lighted wine bottles a little more difficult due to the higher price you will need to charge. Rice or teeny lights are very bright and also burn very cool. They are much smaller but give off plenty of bright light for your bottle. They often come in a count of 20 and can be found in most hobby or crafts stores. You can use Google search to find your local craft store as well as to check price. Your comments are always welcome

jewelry tools titanium diamond bits

Monday, May 25, 2015 Titanium Diamond drill bits I have been selling 1mm titanium diamond drill bits with a 1/8 inch shanks for the last 4 or 5 months. During that short time it has become a very popular with jewelry designers. The feedback has been very positive. Many crafters like the 1mm (1/8” ) shank. Titanium diamond bits are made with a premium grade of diamond sand which makes these Diamond bits a much better quality and should cut a little faster than ordinary burrs. The 3mm (1/8 inch) shank will fit any hand drill, drill press or your DremeR or ForedomR rotary tool With a 3/8” collet. Overall length is approx.. 1 5/8 inch. Diamond grit 100 (medium) The only problem I have is that they are only manufactured in the 1mm size. Perhaps at a later time They will be available in a wider variety of sizes as I feel the titanium diamond bits are better quality. I should mention that I have available a set of 30 titanium burrs all with a 1/8 inch shank. This set is also very popular with jewelry designers. This set has a nice selection of burrs/points.

How to make a lighted wine bottle

Drill holes in glass blocks or wine bottle with diamond drill bits with a hand held drill motor. Before you start to drill the hole you should use some Silly Putty to form a donut. Place the donut over the spot where you want to drill the hole. On a glass block I find a place just off the center line where the two halves of the block are joined. Fill the donut hole with water... During the cutting process the bit will begin to heat up. Make sure the hole in the donut is full of water. Have a little cup of water nearby in case you need to add a little water. Place your wine bottle or glass block on old towel and position between your feet on a hard cement floor. See if you can start drilling by tipping the drill bit a little on its edge you will have to apply a little pressure to get your drill bit to starting cutting. Once it start to cut you can than bring it straight up Remember; Diamond coated drill bits can heat up very quickly. Pump your drill up and down every few seconds. Drilling the hole will take a few minutes because it is difficult to drill through thick glass. Glass blocks are manufactured with a slight vacuum inside. You will often hear a slight hiss when the drill bit breaks through. Wash the glass block inside and out to get the glass dust out of the block. Let it dry before you start to decorate. Remember you don’t need a lot of downward pressure. Set your drill motor at low speed. To learn more about drilling glass block or wine bottle go to google search.

You need to select a bottle that is about 12 inches tall.Wine bottles, tall flower vases or maybe a olive oil bottle. You can use your imagination to find unusual bottle shapes. You bottle needs to be tall enough so that the incense sticks can be placed inside the bottle without it touching the bottom

Many incense bottle craters buy bottle at wholesale and paint the inside.I have not tried painting the inside of a bottle. I would like to learn how this is done.

You should place your vent hole or draft hole about 2 inches above the bottom of your bottle. One or two vent holes would give your bottle enough draft so that the smoke will swirl out of the top.

As you know diamond drill bits always need to be lubricated with water.Here is how I drill my holes in most glass bottles. You can use some Silly Putty to make a do-nut.Place the do-nut where you

You can now buy Mason canning jars in a wide array of colors, as well as a wide choose in size. For our discussion we went to focus on Mason jar lighted Lamps.

The creative imaginations  with crafting a Mason Jar lamp is that you can fill the Mason jar with any quirky thing that you have around the house. How about colored buttons. marbles or beach stones, sea glass, wooden spools, maybe beans, just about anything that you would love to have displayed in your lamp. Here are a few important safety tips to keep in mind.
