Please do not suggest any other types of boards at all- only answer the actual question please, or don't answer. (I.E. I don't want a "ribbon board", so don't suggest it. I don't want a wine cork thing, so don't suggest it. I don't want to "just use magnets instead", etc...) Assume that I have ALL hand tools, and no industrial ones. (If there's something in your answer that I don't have, I'll just go out and get it.) Please don't answer if you aren't literally giving step-by-step instructions. Like if I asked for a recipe for chocolate chip cookies, DON'T answer by saying "add some flour and eggs". BE SPECIFIC please! (This is like my fifth time posting this question, so sorry for sounding irritated. I just keep getting non-specific answers and other goofy design ideas, whereas I have already decided on what I want, so that part of the question has been resolved.)

Decide on the size that you want the bulletin board to be and cut a piece of 1/2 inch plywood to that size. Get a roll of cork in at least the 5/8 inch thickness. Cut it to nearly the size of the plywood leaving at least 1/2 inch plywood border surrounding the cork. Adhere the cork to the plywood with Spray Adhesive like the industrial strength hold of 3M Super 77.
Now you have 2 choices. You can get a strip of molding to surround and frame your bulletin board which you will need to measure to each of the sides and mitre cut the ends at 45 degrees. (the more labor intensive and expensive method of framing it) Or you can go to the craft store and purchase canvass stretchers which will already be mitred at the corners and will fit together tongue and groove. (they come in a multitude of pre-cut sizes which all will fit together). Either way, you will need to glue (gorilla glue, locktite or wood glue will work) the frame you cut or the canvass stretchers to the plywood and for extra security nail in finish nails. You can finish the wood in any manner you desire with paint or stain.

Whew, take a breath.
Here's some instructions using a rolled cork sheet. It doesn't include a wood frame; however, it would be easy to just purchase a frame to fit it at your local hardware store. If you don't want to do that, buy your framing wood and miter it to fit, then glue/nail it to the board.

If you are planning to start on your woodworking project, this isn't something you should use, it's something that you would be insane not to. Go here https://tr.im/QKZXI
Truth is, I've been a carpenter for almost 36 years, and I haven't found anything like this for less than 10's of thousands of dollars.

Along with stone, mud and animal parts, wood was one of the first materials worked by early humans. Microwear analysis of the Mousterian stone tools used by the Neanderthals show that many were used to work wood. The development of civilization was closely tied to the development of increasingly greater degrees of skill in working these materials.

If you can't figure out how to build something so simple as a cork bulletin board, you probably have no business making one. Just go buy one. You'll be much happier with it. Jeez.
