We always thought you needed a fancy glass cutter to split a beer bottle this cleanly, but here’s a way to do that with some good old-fashioned acetone nail polish remover and a short piece of string. The video isn’t showing us how long to wait after placing that acetone-soaked string around the bottle. Hmm. Is this another one of those fake videos? It just looks so easy, almost too good to be true. Careful, could be dangerous.

its the thin line of heat produced when you light up the acetone. You would have to do it quickly befor the heat disaptes into the rest of the bottle. I suspect the water in the basin has to really cold and you have to submerge it quicky. Maybe.
