[B] This is how I learned to make a bottle neck slide.
[N] So this is how I learned how to make a bottle neck slide.
This is how
Hey Tony, how did you learn how to make a bottle neck slide?
This is how I learned how to make a bottle neck slide.
[D]
[D#] Are you [N] ready?
Wait a second.
I need to focus that.
Dude, that was a pretty clean cut.
No it's not.
That's the little metal part.
Alright, seriously.
Here's how you make a bottle [B] neck slide.
First I'll tell you what you need.
You need a bottle.
I [D#] like to use wine bottles.
Preferably these green glass types that slope a little bit like [G] that.
You need a candle.
It matches the light of the candle.
One of these [C] three pronged glass cutter things, but [G#m] I tape it [G#] right there.
You'll see why in a minute.
Some sandpaper.
[B] And some band-aids, just in case.
We're going to get the glass cutter.
It's actually an etcher, it's not really a cutter.
You want to [C#] first measure exactly where your pinky or whatever finger you're going to use [Gm] comes to.
Mine comes to about there.
Take this in your hand like this.
This is why I taped it right here, [D#] so the three prongs don't really hurt your finger.
You're going to want to get as straight a line around this thing as possible.
It'll take you a few times getting it.
[C] So here we go.
[B]
[G#] For those in the cheap seats, he's holding [N] the etcher in one spot and he is rotating the bottle.
There we go.
Nice.
Pretty straight cut.
You're going to need a cold water source too.
Right here it's going to be the sink water.
We're going to take the bottle and you're going to put the flame right on that etch mark.
Because you want to get the [C] glass good and hot right there.
It's hotter up toward the top of the flame.
While I'm getting that good and hot, I'm going to be getting the water good and [C#] cold.
I'm going to let that [F#] run.
Getting cold.
Because once this [D] is hot, we're [N] going to run it under the cold water.
[F#] The theory is that it breaks at its weakest point.
The weakest point is where that etch mark is.
It's getting good and hot.
I think [G#] it's about ready.
Let's hope so.
Here we go.
Ah, I heard a little crack mark.
I [F] heard a little crack sound.
It's definitely ready to go.
[C#] Then I just tap it.
I'm going to go to the floor and tap it.
Ba-Bam.
There you go.
I'm going to dry it off and get rid of this carbon that was [N] deposited on the top there.
I'm simply going to sand it down.
I like to push it away from me.
What I'm doing is I'm at an angle.
Going down and away.
Away.
[C#]
Like that.
I'm [B] also going to do this lethal edge right [F] here.
I'm going to do it like that.
[G]
[N]
To flatten it out a little bit more, I'm going to just pull it completely flat down and push away.
Turn it a little bit, push away, turn it a little bit.
Like that.
Now I'm going to just really get in there.
I'm going to get the [G] inside.
[Bm]
That looks [D#] pretty good.
[B] Wash it off.
Dry it off.
[A] How about we try it out?
[G#m] [C#]
[D#] [C#m] [F#]
[C#]
[A#]
[C#] There you go.
