Convert an Old Camera into a Wine Bottle Stopper

Disassemble the Camera

Carefully disassemble the camera using a screwdriver. Remove all internal components, leaving just the outer casing.

Prepare the Camera Casing

Clean the camera casing thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue. Ensure the casing is dry before proceeding.

Insert Cork into Casing

Take a wine cork and fit it securely into the opening of the camera casing. Trim the cork if necessary to ensure a snug fit.

Secure the Cork

Apply a small amount of adhesive around the base of the cork where it meets the camera casing to secure it in place. Allow the adhesive to cure as per the manufacturer's instructions.

Finishing Touches

Once the adhesive is fully dried, check that the cork is firmly attached to the camera casing. If required, you can add decorative elements to the camera casing for aesthetic appeal.
