This tool is primarily optimized for round glass bottles.
They are designed to provide protection against glass handling, but you should still exercise extreme caution when dealing with freshly cut edges.
You should use wet-dry sandpaper (starting with 80-120 grit and moving to 400+ grit) to grind down the edges until smooth.
Yes, alternating between boiling hot and ice-cold water is the standard method for thermal separation.
If the score line is too deep or the temperature shock is too sudden, the glass may crack. Adjust your scoring pressure or temperature differential for the next attempt.
Ensure the score line is a single, continuous loop without overlap. Apply more consistent pressure during the scoring phase.
Check that the bottle is held firmly against the guide and that the scoring wheel is rotating freely without debris.
Apply a small drop of machine oil to the wheel axle and rotate it manually to distribute the lubricant.
Setup begins by ensuring the cutter is on a level surface. Adjust the cutting head to your specific bottle diameter and secure the screws tightly to prevent shifting. Always wear the included safety gloves before handling glass.
For maintenance, periodically clean the scoring wheel with a light machine oil to ensure smooth rotation. Wipe the stainless steel frame down after each session to remove glass dust or debris. Store the unit in a dry environment to keep the scoring mechanism free of corrosion.
