I've been holding off on trying cork as the wine corks I have seem to be too short to make a decent blank for the kits I typically use. Lately I have been using this kit instead of a traditional slimline, that uses slimline components, only with really short, fat blanks that allowed me to use available corks. I thought that drilling and gluing the tubes would be much more of a problem, but maybe a little extra caution from the start was the key. I used Renwax as a finish on this one rather than CA and Lacquer as I didn't really think much about finishing till I had something to finish. The soft feel is nice, but I'm pretty sure this wont hold up well over time without something more substantial as a finish. I might try some of the flexible clear CA on the next one.
