how do you cut the bottle for the electric cord

The cord stays on the outside. It comes off the base of the light fixture before the cork.

you don't or at least I didn't. It just stays on the outside of the bottle. I also had a problem with the fit of the cork, it was too small and I still haven't found anything to wrap around the cork to make it fit correctly.

With this paticular kit you won't need to cut/drill the bottle at all. The electrical cord runs out of the top of the electrical device and it will run down the outside of the bottle.

The cord is attached to the top so there is no need to cut the bottle. My only issue with the lamp kit is the cork is a bit small for the top of most wine bottles but that can be remedied.

I am not sure what you mean by "the kit", but am guessing it is the socket and cord, and that you need the plugs of varying sizes that go into the neck of the bottle. I don't know if you can or not...I did not look for just those, as I needed the rest of the kit, also.

I have cut those huge apple juice bottles with is that hold a couple of gallons. I think it's safe to say that as long as its round, you can cut it with it. It really works great! But you have to use either boiling water or the candle and then icewater to get a clean cut.

Very easy, take out a couple bottles, there's a plastic tab you press in and the battery pack releases for changing.

I use a butter knife and gently pry up the edge without cutting the rubber ring. We also have a bottle opener that works great. It's not the pointed style, but shaped kind of like a 0 if you know what I mean. Anyway, again, we just gently catch the plastic edge, avoiding the rubber ring so it doesn't get damaged. Hope this helps!

It is in a plastic bottle, you just twist off cap, you'll see a white pull tab thing. Pull hard, if it breaks just poke hole in it.

I have not tried to cut it but it is a hard plastic so it should be possible to cut it with a utility knife.

All you need do is unpack it, charge the battery, go buy cha in oil ( it doesn't ship with any ) and fill the reservoir, turn it on and start cutting.

The cuts are only straight. I bought this and have used it a ton. However, it IS misnamed. It should be called a bottle scoring machine. The technique is to score the bottle by rotating it with only moderate pressure. 1 score bottle with moderate pressure on machine 2 rinse with cold water from tap in sink (to cool before heating) 3 slowly pour a small stream of boiling hot water (teapot works best!) DIRECTLY on crack while rotating bottle in hand to hit the entirety of the crack (use dish gloves so you don't burn yourself) A little bit at time does it, you don't need to pour the entire amount on it. A small stream of concentrated heat is what you need, not a gushing waterfall from the teapot. 4 possibly repeat cold and hot water steps 5 bottle will separate at crack and fall off if done correctly. (i also use a sink scratch guard in the bottom of the sink so the bottle top doesn't break once it falls and hits the sink) It took me a while to get the hang of it, but now I score about 20 bottles at once, and then do the water part separately and I'm done in less than 15min.

Even if it was possible, to do a wall of glass like you suggest would go through many blades and a great many hours of time. Why not buy the right tool for the right job? ($30) Do an Amazon search for Ephrem's Bottle and Jar Cutter. I've been using one since 1972 and it works great. It scratches (scores) the glass, you heat with a candle, rub ice cube on the scored line and bingo, you have a cut bottle. In a minute.

Go to big-box home improvment store. Get a roll of 1/4" clear vinyl tubing for normal extention cords and the next smaller (3/16" I think) for thin cords like cel ph chargers. Cut the tubing to length and use a single edge razor blade to carefully slit one side of the tubing. Work the wire into the tubing and it will close over the cord your trying to protect. We foster kittens and sometimes we get one that loves to chew cords.

There is a built in prong in the unit, Just remove the paper sticker, leaving the plastic cap, then put the bottle into the unit. You will hear a pop as the prong punctures the cap.

Yes. Set the rip fence to the length you want then feed the bottle into the blade until it cuts to the inside then rotate the bottle to cut around it. If you rotate too fast or do not keep the bottle square to the blade, it will break before you finish the cut. Wear gloves and goggles. Small, sharp shards are produce.

Yes. I have had 70% success with getting a clean cut using the hot to cold method to separate my bottles. I first soak the bottle at the stress line in boiling water, then transfer it to ice cold water. Sometimes the bottle separates cleanly and other times, not so much. This product, I think, includes a string and candle to help stress the glass to separate. I have not used it; perhaps that method produces better results.

Cut two 6 1/2 ft. lengths of line cord. Inser one 6 ft length into one side of the head where the arrow indices is and the same with the other piece of line on the other. Push them in snugly. Now just twist the head counter clockwise to you see only 4 inches of lines showing on each side. That's all it takes.

Hold the neck of the bottle and turn the spout, there should be an arrow pointing the direction you need to turn it.

I cut mine with scissors. It is solid plastic but still a little flexible and not really thick. A utility knife should work, too.
