Is the cork thick enough that pushpins don't pierce through to the wall? Thanks!

I have them in my daughters room and they are about a half inch thick. A short push pin would work.

No. I don't have mine in a wall stud and my two year old has yet to break through. Just make sure you affix the screws in with the screw studs.

I do not know the exact thickness. It's not very thick but it does work well with the regular-size push-pins I'm using.

No its not very thick. Its about a quarter of inch i want guess.very easy to put on the wall. works great for me.

The needle is sturdy. It is a significantly wider diameter than a sewing needle. And it requires almost as much force as that needed to twist a corkscrew. But easier to do because you're just pushing it straight down. Hope this helps!

My push-pins stick out of the back about 1/16 of an inch. By subtraction, the board itself (with cardboard backing) seems to be about 5/16 of an inch thick (just over 1/4).

I'm not sure, I bought it for my mom...she was giving it as a gift....but I'll call her tomorrow to see if she can give me any info......are you looking for the thickness as to how the corks sit in it? Or the overall size?

Just checked regarding staples - no problem. Push pins work but a typical push pin is longer than cork is thick. We are using the long hat pin type pins and putting them in at an angle.

Best way to answer this is what surface are you using it against...I stored wine and shot glasses in mine, used sheet rock screws , right thru the wall studs...very easy to level and hang, I would only caution if you are going against sheet rock or plaster and can't locate the studs buy an anchor kit....

It seems very sturdy. It takes very little pressure to insert the needle into corks. Once it's in, 4-5 pumps and the cork starts lifting out. The needle also slides out of corks with ease. This is my favorite wine opener. And for the price you certainly can't go wrong.

Hello Paul, My experience with desk thickness is that should be fine. I operate a business and have bought dozens of various mounts. I clamped this one to a plate glass desktop (very thin) and a very thick desk top. The key to securing firmly is having enough lip for the clamp to slide unto and get a good grip. Some desks have no lip and some not very deep. If not a deep lip, the issue of course is not the top, but the underneath clamp or the knob. The knob may be to close to a side panel to turn. I some cases, I have trimmed down the knob to get closer. Which then requires using a tool to turn and get tight. But that has worked a number of times. I also have secured this mount through desktop by drilling when no lip. This is a fine mount for the price. Very sturdy. Best of Luck.

It is a metallic board with magnetic properties, so it uses magnetic "pins" to hold items to the board. Pushpins would not work, and might scratch the board.

It's kinda thick to.the point were it can't budge unless you move the pendant yourself but make sure to buy a small strong one it did snap easily in fact the first day I got it and it's hard to replace it in my experience but shouldn't be for you bye (=^.^=)

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.

Yes the cork can handle the normal sized push pin. I use a little bit bigger than normal with the decorator head. Works great.

It's about 16 mm thick, not counting the switch lever. No need to cut into the wall to install anything. At most, may have to drill a couple screw holes in the wall, but most just affix with provided double-sided tape. I never attached mine to the wall, just have it sitting on my desk. I've been very happy with it!
