This stuff looks so useful, I've ordered some and it's half price today only with the code: 50twitterjuly18

Ha I just ordered some of this last week, used it to replace a missing camera grip, smells a bit funky but is doing the job well and pretty cheap still. Already thought of a lot more uses for it too, shame I missed out on the half price code

it looks fantastic stuff, i love stuff with many uses

Edrof · 18 Jul 2012 at 12:34

Looks great, now I need to find some uses!

Hmm looks interesting. May be perfect for supporting the end of headphone cables that always seem to weaken (where rigid joint meets the flexible cable)

Play dough for posh people!

That stuff looks brilliant, I'm going to have to get some of it just to have a play!

It's awesome stuff, I thought of a use for it a while ago, can't remember what now though

Ordered a pack anyway

Nice, just ordered some black and white to fix my car keys, Thanks!

That's what I was thinking! The earphones I am listening to right now have had something go wrong at the jack and now I have to twist it a certain way and keep it there for the left channel to work.

Ordered some about 6 months ago and fixed a tear at the end of my laptop charger cable. All good now, except I had white because the seller had no black left.

Hmm i wonder how waterproof this is, looks ideal to patch up a hole in my drysuit boot. Got a feeling it wont handle pressure changes that well though

Might be worth a try

David resealed a link in the cooling system of his car where it needed to withstand temps of 80C and high pressure too.

Ordered some, thanks OP. Was brought to my attention many months ago, and totally forgotten about! I have a few ideas of my own. I wonder if it can be laser cut once cured . . . . ?

Cosimo · 18 Jul 2012 at 13:36

I'll be ordering some. Thanks for the link.

I bought some polymorph plastic recently, full of enthusiasm for creating an array of doubtlessly exciting and infinitely useful little widgets. I've done basically nothing with it, so I won't get any of this, even though it's sorely tempting!

Cosimo · 18 Jul 2012 at 13:44

Two packs ordered.

tamzzy · 18 Jul 2012 at 14:05

o wow that looks interesting...lol

Once cured, sugru is inert, but people can be allergic to anything, so we have to tell you to be careful. sugru isn’t certified as food safe yet, but we’re working on it. For now, please resist the urge to eat it.

Thanks for the link OP.

I like the guy who shock proofed his camera!
