This bottle opener is so EASY to make! All you need is some scrap wood and a nut/bolt. It is also super fun to use and is a fun trick to show off at parties.

Step 2: Cut Wood - If Needed
Use the saw to cut wood to desired length. You will want to sand your wood after to make sure it is safe for use.
Step 3: Drill Hole
Drill hole at the end of the wood about 1/2" to 1" from the end.
Step 4: Insert Nut and Bolt
Put the bolt in the hole.
Leave the head of the bolt sticking out 1/2" to 3/4" from the wood. Screw nut on end of bolt on the other side of the wood.

Step 5: Have Fun!
I got this idea from a restaurant in Vietnam. The waiter was really charasmatic and used this bottle opener. He gave us each one to bring home. It is lots of fun to use!
