Basically, use a glass cutter to make a small nick where I want the glass cut. (None of this have to score all the way around the vessel.) And then use a lazy susan or old turn table to spin the bottle while using a small blow torch to heat it. Of course the cut will be sharp and would need sanding. I'm getting all kinds of ideas.... |

i've been drilling myself... although, i have a friend that has a kiln and makes porcelain and stonewear (sp?) plant containers... he made me a couple of orchid pots that are perfect for small SH plants... let me dig up the pics on my instagram....
here's one i drilled for a paph... was 1.50 at walmart... here's two ceramic pots i drilled into, they used to house two orchid seedlings i rescued from lowes... and... i can't find a picture only a video... sorry for the music... https://scontent-lax3-1.cdninstagram...18060566_n.mp4 |

I grow all my orchid inside and I just love what you were able to do with the ceramic cache pots. I saw the video too and it's just wonderful. Does your friend sell online? |
