How to open a perfume bottle with the top broken off?

Hey there! I understand how frustrating it can be when you have a perfume bottle with the top broken off. But don't worry, I've got you covered! In this guide, I'll walk you through a simple and effective method to open a perfume bottle with a broken top using a power tool.

Here's what you'll need:

- A power drill with a small drill bit (around 1/16 inch or 1.5mm)

- A pair of pliers or tweezers

- Safety goggles (always prioritize safety!)

Now, let's get started:

1. Put on your safety goggles to protect your eyes from any debris that may come loose during the process.

2. Take your power drill and attach the small drill bit. Make sure it's securely in place.

3. Hold the perfume bottle firmly in one hand, making sure you have a good grip on it. You don't want it slipping and potentially causing any accidents.

4. With your other hand, hold the power drill and gently position the drill bit at the center of the broken perfume bottle top. Start drilling slowly and steadily, applying light pressure.

5. As you drill, be careful not to push too hard or drill too deep. The goal is to create a small hole in the broken top without damaging the bottle or the perfume inside.

6. Once you've drilled a hole in the broken top, carefully remove the power drill and set it aside.

7. Now, take your pliers or tweezers and insert them into the hole you just created. Gently twist and pull upwards to remove the broken top from the bottle.

8. Voila! You've successfully opened your perfume bottle with the broken top. Now you can transfer the perfume to a new bottle or find a replacement top to use.

Remember, safety is paramount when using power tools. Always wear your safety goggles and exercise caution throughout the process. If you're unsure or uncomfortable with using a power drill, it's best to seek assistance from a professional or someone experienced with power tools.
