Since I do not have a fretted cigar box guitar yet, I made a slide from a wine bottle. It was actually surprisingly easy to do. I used a carbide cutting wheel on my Dremel to score a circle around the base of the neck on the wine bottle. I then tapped the neck with a hammer and the neck broke off right at the score. I then cleaned the edge of sharp points with the cutting wheel.
It fits perfectly around my finger since the neck of the wine bottle I used is tapered. It sounds pretty good too!
