BTTF : My diet pepsi bottle project

Great work! They look very well made, and nicely painted. :)

Just curious, why did you choose the Diet Pepsi out of all the soft drinks? I would have chosen the Pepsi Perfect, but I guess I'm a commoner. lol
 
Ahhh...gotcha. I wonder how the clear ones could be made, all that comes to mind is clear resin and vacuforming...

Maybe one day.
 
Hi, I'm making my own bottles ( Just Pepsi Perfect / Orange Slice), and I had just wanted to ask you, what wood did you use?, for I have a lathe- yet no clue on what type of wood to use....

Thanks, :cool
 
Poplar will probably be your best best. The origianl Vac Formed Pepsi Perfects had a pretty pronounced grain as did my Solid Wood Slice.
 
its the poplar choice! :behave

I need to finish the project thats been on my lathe for a few months (just need a bondo coat then sanding to final dims) then I want to get a 2015 bottle spinning.
