[Woodcarver] cork for bottlestoppers

[Loren Woodard]

Jimmy:

I use the predrilled corks from Wood Craft
(http://shop.woodcraft.com/Woodcraft/assets/html/homepage.asp?URLCheck=1).

They are relatively inexpensive and work great.  I have tried several others
but this is my favorite.  Hope this helps.

Hi all,
Does anyone know what is the best cork for using with bottlestoppers? I have
tried a #RL 7 from Jelinek
( "Natural Tapered Corks. Top diameter = 13/16 inch,  Length = 1 inch,
Bottom diameter = 5/8 inch" )
but they seem a little on the short side. Also, they are difficult to drill
a clean hole even with a brad tip bit.
Any suggestions?
thanks,
Jimmy B.
