ive made many of these in the past but after the last batch i got rid of what corks  i had left. a good friend wanted me to make her some so i had to buy some corks ! found someone on ebay that sold used corks. each board holds 32 corks. the inner space is 7" square but next time ill go about 1/4" bigger so as not to have to do any trimming. the wood is mahogany with a masonite bottom. rubber feet and my logo coin. finish is 5 coats of gloss lacquer. corks are attached with hot melt glue. a simple project that makes a great gift.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Nice work and with the cork, they are really useful for hot dishes since the cork insulates
yeah we use ours all the time. i made 14 last christmas as gifts. nice thing then was the corks were free.

Good stuff Pottz. I made a ~2' x 3' bulletin board with a similar pattern. My daughter worked at a golf course one summer and brought a big box of corks home.
