Yet another solution would be to use cork whole bore-ers or drills used in laboratories to cut wholes in corks and rubber stoppers for fitting tubing or glass tubes in. Once you cut the whole in a cork sheet of appropriate thickness simply punch out the "whole" from the cutter and there you have your cork stopper.....Walter Lawson also told me about the neoprene impregnated cork (which he used) that the military developed for corking the clarinets etc., cork like and yet does not soak up oil etc......
