how thick is the cork layer?

It's a decent thickness. I bought pins longer than normal push pins for it & they go in pretty far. Although, I gave it as a gift with a map adhered to it so I'm going from memory.

Actually, there is a very thin layer of cork (about 1/16") backed up by some sort of fiber material. I have had mine for 5+ years, and the cork no longer holds the push pins in heavily used areas. I keep certain things pinned in the same places all the time, and where the pins are inserted in those areas the cork and backing material wears out over time.

I haven't actually measured it, but my best estimate would be a minimum of 1/2 inch thick.

With frame and all it's 3/4". The cork is the kind that doesn't show pin heads once you take them out.

Not sure, but I'd probably try gluing the tile to the cork. Then trim the cork with the razor or sharp knife using the tile is a guide edge.

its about 1/2 inch thick. We love ours! it has saved my wood table from so many rings!

Cork is very secure. I have put water in them. It does slowly evaporate after several months, but no leakage. You could always seal around it with some type of glue/adhesive.

The cork material should work fine. The thickness and form-fitting capabilities should work very well. I have used this set to make gaskets for a street legal nitrous injected heavy modified 350 Chevy engine with no problems ie, water pump gasket, and header to exhaust connections.

My floors are polyurethane sealed hardwood, with a semi-gloss finish. I wouldn't think the actual floor material would matter as much as with what and how it is finished. If it is sealed well as mine are - with no possibility of discoloring your cork - you should be fine.

I don't think so. The cork surface will warp if exposed to excess moisture. If it's located in a sheltered area it may be ok. Good luck.

About 1-2 mm thick. Not thick enough for cold whether below freezing for more than 1-2 days. Did not help the tree I was trying to save during the last winter.

Cork is a great natural material. It is waterproof and resists dirt. It probably doesn't have the longevity of vinyl, but it works well for this application. I really like the mount.

Handle is foam, color is similar to cork. Handle material is foam, for sure.

I've been cutting the bottoms off of wine bottles. The thickest one was probably only 1/4 of an inch, (which was not a problem) but not sure about 1/2 inch....I think the hardest part with that would be getting a straight break when separating.

I used the Global Amici replacement corks that I purchased and eventually discarded them. I recollect that they were narrower than I had expected, which meant that they sank into the mouths of bottles deeper than I wanted them to. Corks are assigned size numbers based on length and diameter, and are also rated as to density and shape. Information about corks is available online. I urge you to research corks before making a purchase. Once you know the size, shape, and density of the cork you want, you'll be able to order corks that suit your needs.

It's pretty thick. Probably 3/8 - 1/2". It is very nice. I get lots of complements. I can take an exact measurement if needed.

By the math and taking into account the neck volume and cork stop, I'd say roughly 0.33 fl oz (1/3 fl oz) or 9.5 - 10 ml. Maybe a little less.

Yes, but the sound will not be reduced by 6 mm of cork as much as 1 or 2 " acoustic tile or foam. rolled cork is a form of press board and unless sealed will come apart in time. I used the cork as underlayment for a model train lay out and it worked fine at reducing mechanical noise. It was glued to a plywood table top and sealed with marine varathane.

I'm not sure how I would measure the thickness, I would have to guess around 2-3 mm, if that helps any...
