How to put a ship inside of a bottle
There are many ways to put a ship inside of a bottle. The simplest and most widespread way is to rig the masts of the ship and raise them up when the ship is inside the bottle. Masts, spars and sails are built separately and then attached to the hull of the ship with strings and hinges so the masts can lie flat against the deck. The ship is then placed inside the bottle and the masts are pulled up using the strings attached to the masts. Of course the hull of the ship selected to put inside of the bottle must be able to fit through the opening. Bottles with minor distortions and soft tints are often chosen to hide the small details of the ship such as hinges on the masts. Building the ship in the bottle requires specialized long-handled tools, a keen eye, good coordination, and a lot of patience.
Fruits and vegetables in bottles are produced by placing them in a bottle while small and on the plant, and allowing them to grow to full size in the bottle.The greatest myths about these are that they are made by the bottles being blown around the objects (citation needed) or that the necks of bottles are added or made smaller after pieces are put inside. The objects inside impossible bottles always go through the neck, as it is, in some form. Only dice and pennies and an occasional metal figurine have bottles blown around them. Even if this could be done with the coins and pliers and pieces you see inside impossible bottles, the cost would be very high to have it done and impossible bottle makers would never use them as this would destroy them being able to state all was put in through the neck, with no glass blowing or cutting involved.
Ship in the bottle kits are available from hobby shops, making it unnecessary to build them using raw materials.
