Step 6Bottom Sliders
Next, we will apply sliders to the bottom so that the coaster will be able to move around on surfaces without leaving scratches and marks.
On your cork, mark off 3 or 4 sections that are 1/8 of an inch or about 3 mm long. When you cut these, be as even as possible! If your wood piece is uneven, we need to balance it out with slightly longer and shorter cork pieces.
If you are using cardboard or other material, you need to cut about 3/4 inch diameter circles of consistent height.
NOTE: This is the most difficult part since cork crumbles/rips when you try to cut small sections off. Leave room for error, and its OK if you end up with different length sections if you have an uneven wooden piece.
