A new toy in town: sugru – crazy rubber modeling material

I find a new “toy” for geeks. It is Sugru and it will keep you busy for long time and all things around you will become full of colors …

What Sugru is? Sugru is a silicone rubber modeling material that sets permanently.

How Sugru works? It can be worked in much the same way as modeling clay. It adheres to aluminum, steel, glass, wood, and even some fabrics and plastics. After drying for 24 hours at room temperature, it maintains a hard rubbery texture.

Sugru comes in sealed, 5 gram foil packets and Use Sugru to add grip to tools and everyday items, smooth over rough edges, even add non-slip padding to the bottom of electronic device/coffee mugs/anything you want! When it’s dry, Sugru is waterproof and dishwasher safe, meaning you can use it on just about anything.

 

This pouch comes with 12 mini-packs of Sugru material in 5 colors, two Sugru stickers and a 7-step booklet to help you become a ‘Sugru Guru.’ We like Sugru because it makes tools like pliers and screwdrivers more comfortable to use and also makes a great prototyping material! Check out the Sugru website below for examples of how other people are using Sugru to hack things better.
