How we make cups.

We were having a severe lack of cups and glasses to use. Especially glasses to drink water that were not the size of a thimble. ( they have no idea what it's like to get a glass of water in the Gibson household) 

So we took matters into our own hands... Things got a little dangerous but a few glass explosions and small kitchen fires later we finally made and or "broke", if you will, our new water cups. 

All you need is a glass bottle, cotton thread and acetone. Soak the thread in acetone tie it around the bottle where you would like to break it, light it on fire then spin the bottle as fast as you can just until the flame is about to go out. Then dunk the bottle in cold water and....
Wah-la! A kinda more normal water glass. That is, after hours of sanding it down to make it smooth and even so as to not cut yourself.
