Answers:
The cork borer set generally is
supplied with a rod to clean
pieces of cork out of the
borer!. Soften the cork by
wrapping it in a piece of
paper and rolling it gently on
the floor under your foot!.
With one hand, hold the cork
firmly on the table or bench,
wide end up!. With the other
hand, place the cutting edge of
the cork borer in the center of
the cork!. Then with a gentle
twisting motion on the cork
borer, bore into the cork until
the tool is about halfway
through the cork!.
It is not necessary to push hard;
but twist gently with light
pressure!. Remove the cork borer
from the cork and push out small
pieces of cork inside it with
the cleaning rod!.
Turn the cork over and repeat
this process until there is a
hole through the cork!. Page 30 of this will show you how!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Cork borers come in different sizes depending on how large you want the hole to be!.

The best way to bore a hole through a cork is to lay it flat on the table, the wider part at the bottom, narrower part facing up!. Wet the cork borer with water, secure the cork between thumb and index finger!. Put the cork borer in the center of the cork and press down in a circular manner!. Don't press the cork borer straight down, it will take you forever to bore the hole!.

Once you feel the borer has gone through the cork, lift the cork and cork borer together then continue with the circular motion until the cork borer passes all the way through!. You may then pull the cork borer out!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hah, Nice one Savvy!

I'm told that "Cork boring" is a term referring to wine aficionados, aka "Claret Poofs", who corner you, say over dinner, and bore you to a stupor about their knowledge of all topics oneological!.

I'm also informed that the only escape from a cork borer, is to cut the dinner short, take them home for a long evening of cork boring between the sheets!.

Dinner sometime!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hand driven, for boring straight and uniform holes in cork or rubber stoppers!. Cast iron frame baked enamel finish with wooden platform to support stopper!. Base has four holes for mounting on table or bench top!. The spindle has a center hole through which passes the cleaning rod!. Complete with set of 12 plated steel borers!. The sizes of the borers are as follows : 4mm, 4!.5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 9!.5mm, 10mm, 11mm, 13mm, 14mm, 15mm, 17mm and 18mm!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's drilling corks with a machine!. You're either drilling corks out of a cork-wood plank or drilling holes in existing corks!.

For small jobs you could buy a deep-well bore for a tabletop drill press!. For larger jobs there are specialized tools!.

Either way you'd need cork as planks or lots of wine corks!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sure - it's when Mrs!. Ima-Gene Cork drones on and on about her rotten grand-kids and insists on showing you pictures!.

I'm familiar with the tool - a kind of drill press to bore a precise hole through a cork, but I don't know why they do it! So I will wait anxiously for the answer too!.!.!.
