Oh wow...this is definitely a niche you could do very well in. Hmmm for bottle suggestions....some of the bitters, historical flasks, and old sodas would create a lot of interest. Good luck. Those are amazing. If you ever make any for sale or custom producing I would be interested......Keep up the hard work. The detail is amazing.
Very pleased......

Well Ben I had to come in on this showing. However my main message is to Erik T. I wanted to tell him that if the glass bottle industry was still alive, he could quickly get a job in a pattern shop, where they mad hundreds of wooden bottles every year to be used as salesmen s samples and samples to be tested in product handling mechanisms etc for the bottle customers. Erik if you PM me your address, I will track down an old wooden bottle model to send to you. I appreciate your skill and thoughtful creativity. RED M.

My suggestion is to do the $68,000.00? Bryant`s bitters bottle.You do excellent work! Maybe you could make a torpedo bottle and cut it in half and hollow it out and hinge it for a jewelry box (with a flat spot to keep it from rolling) because it has to lay on its side.I can see them selling at shows as the "unbreakable" bottles of Erik T!

I agree with Wangan, Eric. Do some really rare bitters or medicine bottles.You could probably get some pretty good money for them.Very nice work!![;)]
