Hi David,

Can you get your hands on a pair of artery forceps? These are what the love 
generation sometimes referred to as roach clips! They are a sort of cross 
between very narrow thin pliers and tweezers which are usually curved on the 
end but may well fit into the hole and pinch the cork firmly. You can probably 
pinch hard enough to split the corks and remove them that way as pulling them 
back through is likely to be very difficult. Artery forceps might be available 
at a drug store I am not sure, I used to be able to get old ones from our CSR 
Department, any damage or defects after they have been sterilized and they 
discard them. They are made of wonderful steel though and work well for a wide 
variety of small tasks which apparently include toking.

  I have two shakers with the corks completely inside, is there a way to get 
them out? the only access is through the small hole the corks are supposed to 
plug up. I don't care if I destroy them, I just want them out of there!
