Hi!

There are a number of jigs and tools out there to cut bottles, most mid
1970's vintage.  I have several, and would be happy to cut bottle(s) for
you.  Basically the jigs involve a glass cutter wheel and a fixed fence to
hold the base against.  If you'd like more info, please let me know, I'd be
happy to help out.  I'm sure you'll be able to help me out of a jam
sometime......
