To make such a hot stand from wine cork corks we need super glue and many, many cork corks.
I think that super glue can easily replace glue Moment “Joiner”, a small jar of which is definitely enough for this project, but how many tubes of super glue will be difficult to say. By the way, it is better not to use a hot glue gun.
As for cortical plugs, they need at least 60. If you do not have such a number of traffic jams, then you can buy new ones at stores selling goods for viticulture and winemaking, and ask for a used item in some cafe-bar.
So, first you need to glue 3 corks together with glue.
Next, glue the corks so that it turns round and continue to glue the cork corks in a circle to the size you need.
After the glue dries, the hot pad from the cork plugs can be used for its intended purpose.
