Great Cork Board Kit

By Jim the wine snob

from Addison, TX on 3/25/2008

Pros:

Durable

Cons:

Not enough gluepaste

Best Uses:

Kitchen

Describe Yourself:

Quality hunter

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The toughest part about putting the kit together is cutting the corks to fit. I used a Dremel tool with a small saw bit. There is not enough gluepaste to complete the project. It is a great use for all the corks one gathers.

Fun, but time consuming

By Winedrinker from Woodbine, MD on 3/21/2008

Pros:

Attractive Design, Conversation piece, Fun, Interesting

Cons:

Need more than 256 corks, Not enough glue provided, Time consuming

Best Uses:

Kitchen

Describe Yourself:

Whimsical

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Still working on this. Didn't have enough corks. Colored synthetic corks don't look good. Hard to fit short/long/skinny/fat corks in perfectly. It's like doing a long puzzle. Of course drinking wine while you do this helps :-)

My new hobby

By Cappy

from Jacksonville, Fl on 12/4/2007

Pros:

Bright, Durable

Describe Yourself:

Practical

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I purchased four of these since I have collected about 3000 corks for the last 30 years, and had no idea what to do with them until I saw this in your catalog. [...] came with everything needed, except not enough glue.I sent all four to my daughters for Xmas. Everyone that has seen them wants one! To do a big board right; will take about 4 hrs. to do.

Too much trouble!

By Karen

from Flossmoor Il on 11/27/2007

Pros:

Attractive Design, Durable, Memory Saver

Cons:

Difficult assembly

Best Uses:

Kitchen

Describe Yourself:

Stylish

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The board was difficult to assemble using the glue supplied in the kit....too little supplied...if I chose to continue using it. A hot glue gun was much more efficient. I did like the final product...although it did not look as professional as the picture on the box.

Great Bulletin Board (when we fill it)

By A wino that I know

from Rockford , Mi on 11/21/2007

Pros:

Attractive Design, Durable, Easy To Assemble

Best Uses:

Dining room bulletin area

Describe Yourself:

Practical

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We are only using natural cork on this item and a lot of the wines we drink use artificial corks. (There's a connection there somewhere) Anyway, we thought we had saved a lot of corks but it appears we need to concentrate a lot more on buying (and drinking) wines with natural cork. Dang, more trips to Michigan Wine country - I HATE when that happens.

great recycling of cork!!

Describe Yourself:

Bargain Hunter, Practical, Stylish

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We really enjoyed adding all the corks we saved to make this bulletin board-need to get another kit for this year's corks!
