Sugru

Post by ForgeCorvus »

I've done a search and nothing came up, so I thought I'd post about it
This is what I'm talking about http://sugru.com/about, I ordered some online (a while back) and then had a play about with it.
Basically, if you can make the shape out of blu-tack you can make it out of Sugru. Plus it sticks to almost everything I've tried it on.

Anyone got it, used it or preps it ?


I like the fact that its a small company with a unique product


BTW, you can now buy it in B&Q.

Never heard of it, but I love the video:

I'll have a look in my B&Q

Thanks for the heads up. :)

If it is as good as the advert claim could be useful for repairing the soles of shoes, and for hacking electrical items.

What little I've got left is in the mini packs of 5g each, the pack is a little larger then a wrapped condom but smaller then a single wrap wet-wipe.

If you keep the un-opened packs in the fridge it keeps better...Mind you, mine have a use-by date of September 2012 so I'd better think about rotating them......... Oh, what to fix??
