    Jokes on you, I welded that during work hours. Got paid 25 dollars, spent it on more booze. The Crown Royal Ouroborous.

    As an alcoholic, that doesn’t work … it delays things which may have an effect but it doesn’t stop someone with a strong enough addiction

    Nice welding job tho

      Yah, you could just carefully use a nail and get two holes through the shoulders. One for a straw and one for air.

    The problem with this is that anyone capable of welding also has several grinders for cutting metal. Try concrete next time.

      Grinders work on concrete too btw. One of their main uses, aside from metalwork. The only way to lock it, would be to encase the entire thing in it (as in contacting the bottle) but I feel like that loses that charm of “a trapped bottle”.

          Yeah, pretty much. Just use disks for concrete, not metal and it makes it all a cakewalk

    Did you do this OP? Cause I’ve seen something similar as a joke Christmas gift. It doesn’t seem like a great way to stop someone drinking but it is might be a funny gift. Especially to someone who isn’t very handy and won’t be able to get through the casing.

    Is this the most wholesome commagazine?

    No, but it’s kinda funny and I’ll think it may have one of the least bad communities until they stuff me into a skip and light its contents ablaze.

    Edit: votes have been cast and the results show that this place is 2/4 dumpster and 1/2 decent.

    Less effective than just throwing out the bottle, but I can see you meant weld.
