I have lots of wine corks and would like ideas on how to use them to
build something. I don't want to buy a copy of cork boat, don't need
ugly coasters and don't play darts or grow orchids. Is there something
to create that would prsereve the character of the cork ( not coating
it with plastic or resin ) that is useful or interesting?

This may be just a little bit more ambitious than what you have in mind:
