not a good idea

[dralarms]

Well, last year I figured that my 3 gallon better bottle wasn't being used so I decided to start putting corks in it, just to see how many it would hold.

Let me tell you not a good idea, those suckers are hard to get out. Ain't doing that again. May use it as a water bottle but no more cork storage. That's a pita..

So, how many were in there?? If you don't have them all out yet, I have a possibly bright idea. Maybe not, tho. Fill the jug with water and take a small piece of wire to use to move them around so they float out. Have to keep adding water, but they should come out easy. Arne.

A much broader question would be "what to do with your used corks". I just had this conversation my niece. She then showed me a picture where wine corks were used as flooring...

All I could say was "we can do this, but I'll have to pick a small room. My liver can only take so much."

Not sure how many were there, but I average 1 bottle a day and it was over a years worth. I'm probably going to just dump them but haven't done that yet.

Like the way you think Jim.

Fill it with water, the corks float, keep toping the water and use a small rod/needle nose pliers to gab them out. Keep adding water so they are wanting to come out.

Don't dump them. Crafters are always looking for wine corks to make things out of. I would try to sell them on craig's list.

Already got them out.

That I hadn't considered. Thanks.
