Thanks for sharing

Very cool. What role does the Dremel play in this process? Prep only, or throughout?

Interior of the neck, but only occasionally.

Good job on those. I have a few I would like to clean, but not to be a buzz kill, I kinda like a bit of patina on my bottles, I call it provenance. Haha

I’ve been tumbling the insides of bottles for the last year now. I’m going to be upgrading my system so I can tumble inside and out. I figure y’all might enjoy seeing the before and after photos so I’ll start posting them here when I remember. This is a waco bottle I recently got as a gift from my father.

Hi I too have been cleaning bottles for about 1 1/2 years with a cleaning machine I made myself that can clean inside and out and I Agee there is a big difference between the stained and unstained, (not to mention value)and I would prefer a cleaner looking bottle, that is the way it should look, not crappy looking
