Is it possible to cut the cork board to a different size or will it fall apart? Also, how thick is the cork?

As the cork board is framed, I would say cutting it wouldn't be wise. As to how thick it is, I don't know. However, when hanging a calendar, we found it best to use at least two push pins. Hope this helps!

It's not very thick, max a couple inches (including the wooden frame...I'd say the cork is less than an inch thick). I'm unsure as to whether or not it would fall apart. It's sturdy (even though it's not thick), but I suspect the sturdiness comes from the wooden frame and the backing. I wouldn't cut it.

It is a framed board. I would not suggest cutting that. It is thick enough for push pins.

What kind of foam board? Usually a serrated knife works well for that, or scoring and breaking. I think this would just melt it and make a mess. Sorry!

You could cut it down to size. It is made of very heavy rubber and it is about an inch thick, so it will take a little effort to cut. I would recommend you use a heavy duty utility knife with a sharp / new blade in it for a clean cut. This way will most likely still take several passes trying to cut through it because of the thickness. I'm sure you could use other tools to cut it as well.

Yes you can we glued it to walls where wallpaper could not be repaired and use it as cork board.

I used this cork for padding a model train layout. It cuts pretty cleanly with a box cutter. I see no reason why it couldn't be used in kitchen drawers.

it's only about 1/8" thick. If you did a couple layers it could work. My wife used it to cut into 1" strips to weave together to make a cork board and it was barely thick enough, so we wound up backing it with some foam core so the thumb tacks wouldn't go all the way through.

I'm not sure I can help you because I did not glue mine down. But I can tell you this. It is very dense, ( not too thick, ) and STRONG..We needed to trim it to fit our small garage and it was vey difficult to cut. I doubt it would tear .I'm sure it would be terrific glued down.

this is only the corkboard. in fact, it is just corrugated cardboard with a layer of cork on top. You can cut it to fit in the frame of your choice and then hang the frame. Or velcro/Command Strips directly on the back of the corkboard

Yes and no.... For the most part I would say yes... we had a couple pieces of cedar boards split and we had to replace or repair them, but I honestly think that is typical of cedar unless you are working with much thicker pieces of lumber... Overall we are very satisfied and we would buy it again if we needed another.... Hope you are good at puzzles cuz it took a couple days for us to put it together - there are a LOT of pieces!!!!!

It appears to be a material similar to cardboard and would not support any substantial weight with materials attached to a cork board. However, it is a great computer desk. I have two of them.

Suggest you contact Oxo, and in the meantime, any cork would do. Corks are usually available in various sizes at hardware and craft stores. A plug of plastic wrap also would work.

I honestly don't know. It is thick and very sturdy. But with the proper tool/cutter, I can't see why it couldn't be done.

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.

This keyboard could have the width cut down. The original keyboard has indentation holes for the railing screws pre-marked, which would be cut off of one end when you cut the keyboard width down. Someone skilled in woodworking could cut the keyboard down to the size you want, but you'd have to be careful to put the screws for the railings in absolutely straight after the size was cut down. I'm not saying it can't be done, I'm just saying it would take some careful time and patience to be absolutely sure it was cut straight when the width was cut back, and to mark the new screw locations exactly straight, but in capable hands it seems doable. Got a woodworking buddy?

It's fairly thin... I had a little problem getting the backer and Lens through. If it is a really thick piece of cork board, it may be a little thin.

It is about 1/16 inch thick. Most three-hole punches could punch through this. Most single-hole, hand-operated punches would work too. You would be limited to within about 1/2 inch of the edge of the material. You could also use a hammer-driven punch and possibly a drill bit that is about 1/4 inch, but that could tear the cork. Try a small sample. Mostly, the answer is "yes".

Don't think that will work. I used 3M spray on glue. Sprayed both the area I was putting it on to and the back of the cork board. Worked great still ok after 4 years.
