Shaping Cork Bark

[Aliengod3]

Ok this is probably a stupid question. I have a few slabs of raw cork bark. I was readin that it is possible to sand a shape them in order to make them more suitable for miniature bases. Does anyone know what sort of tool I should use to do this? Sand Paper or maybe some other type of sanding tool? Also would a regular hobby knife be good enough to carve up the cork?

The cork slabs I have are about 12 inches X 12 inches X 2 inches so they are pretty thick.

Hacksaw, junior or regular, Tenon saw. Cut to fit base sizes you want, fill gaps with Polyfilla (Spakkle?) shape to match.

You are never too old to experiment and learn.
