PET Bottle Ribbon


Hello friends !!! Recently I saw a bottle cutter for pet bottles on the Internet and decided to make such a thing for myself. On the Internet, a lot of different designs chose the simplest design and repeated. There are a lot of online homemade with a PET tape, there they make fences and weave baskets, and how heat shrink is used in general, a lot of what is done with it for both beauty and household. I’m not inventing anything new. I’m just repeating the finished design scheme.

And so I proceed.

For fixtures I need
  1. Bar 50 by 30, 20 cm
  2. Canvas from a clerical knife
  3. Two nails 40 mm

We will need a tool
  1. Hacksaw
  2. Hammer
  3. 10 minutes time


I burn it a little and clean it with a clear view

Now stepping back from the edge an equal distance and make a 5-6 cm cut.

Now measuring out at 5 mm, make marks across - this is to adjust the width of the tape.

Need to make a file with a sheet of metal, it is just suitable for a knife in thickness.

I saw the rest

Now we need two nails

Stepping back from the edge by 2cm I hammer and bend them

That's all the homemade work is ready, now it remains to equip with a blade and you can work to charge you need to bend the nails

And insert the blade to the desired width

Nails back. Blade tip inward. Nails clamp very well.

That's all you can use. I’ll say it’s been a long time and I already thought that I did it wrong, as soon as I didn’t twist it, I couldn’t cut the stripes. One main rule is to cut off the bottom of the bottle evenly. 2 is to make a smooth transition to the bottle, and finally it worked.

I made the device at work, I didn’t have any bottles, somehow I found one, as I’ll be at home I’ll cut more.

Well, that's all the friends of the homemade product I liked. Then I’ll look on the net, maybe I’ll do something, there are beautiful things there, in general we’ll wait and see.

I want to say a big thank you to our site bgm.imdmyself.com for the fact that here you can learn a lot of useful and interesting things, you can also share your work. I wish prosperity and development of the site and I wish you more creative ideas to your friends.

Thank you friends see you bgm.imdmyself.com

And I, by the way, didn’t get it ... I mean, in the sense that I also made a bottle cutter by this principle. Only "I didn’t look for easy ways" - in my version the blade was static, and by turning the handle up and down the section of the profile pipe with a slot moved .... Damn ... On the contrary ... Inside this pipe the body was "extruded-retracted" with a longitudinal slot for the edge of the bottle and a transverse for the blade ... Of course, the pipe also had a wider longitudinal slot. But, what I did not do, no matter how I drove it, sensibly did not work! The tape was crooked, and, at least once, it was sure to break off on each bottle cut!
In short, I couldn’t get a good result without an axis for the bottle. Yes, and when the axis was done, anyway, although it became better, it stopped breaking off so often, but, anyway, the best result was obtained when I held it sideways, a little at an angle ...
In short, he spat, and made another option - vertical, but with a perpendicular axis (There is in my profile). This one is already cutting confidently. And evenly, and the whole bottle, to the very neck opens. And do not bother with a straight cut bottom. If crooked cropped - just the first turn the curve tape will be, and then it aligns itself ..

cumbersome, not comfortable, not beautiful, terribly crooked.
