The second method uses something as common as paper clips. Here’s how to do it:
Prepare two steel paper clips: Straighten one side of each clip, leaving one end curved.
Insert the clips: Insert the curved ends into the sides of the cork, one on each side, and twist to engage the cork.
Use chopsticks or pliers: With the clips firmly engaged, use chopsticks or pliers to pry the cork out.
Method 3: Screw and Pliers
This method is very similar to using a traditional corkscrew:
Insert a long screw into the cork: Make sure the screw goes deep into the cork.
Use pliers: Using pliers, grab the screw and pull straight up. This method works like a makeshift corkscrew, and it’s very effective.
