Has anyone used this stuff before? I bought some recently to play with. It’s basically silicone rubber you can mold into all sorts of things.
Interesting but a little pricey :cowboy_hat_face: 8)
It is a bit, but I think you get a lot in a 5g packet.
That stuff looks really cool but very pricey for the small amount you get. I'm wondering what use it could have on my flashlights...custom grips...Shock absorbent bezels and tail pieces... :bigsmile:
for an old letch like me, you really could have not brought this to my attention……it conjoured up……images… :bigsmile:
Try polycaprolactone instead. Available all over the place for not too much money. Not as flexible as Sugru but a lot cheaper.

Images of what??! Or should I not ask that? 
not on this forum……
shall we just say that this quote
along side your avatar sort of sent me in one direction……
Oooh I remember seeing a video of this stuff a long time ago, melting it in a saucepan and being able to reuse it? I think Sugru sets so you can’t reuse it.
I could make some cat ears! No? Or I could just buy some. >.<
Great info ,but the link to shop is well out of date my friend 
yeah, thats it, devil horns for Halloween… :bigsmile:
I must just have a dirty mind 
Google around some… there is an Instrutible (?) or something on making your own Sugru substitute. Start by searching for: homemade sugru. BTW, Sparkfun has (had) some slightly expired Sugru at a discount.
Thanks, texaspyro!
Now I’m wondering what to do with the leftovers so it doesn’t go to waste. >.<
Bake some Sugru cookies!
I was going to mention Oogoo!
Anyone try it? I’ve been wondering how it actually works out.
wow, this is news to me, and I spent some time a couple years ago searching for just such a product.
thanks for posting.
after my search, I ended up dissolving polysterene (the brittle white beaded packing foam) in acetone instead.
that is kind of tough to work with - it can be shaped and it hardens but if you make something too thick the acetone evaporates but doesn’t escape and you get bubbles/expansion. and the end result is not very flexible.
I’d be careful with dissolved polystyrene, the styrene monomer (Which there will be a fair amount of in solution) is nasty stuff and is possibly carcinogenic.
yes, in fact, i think it certainly is carcinogenic, which is good to note in case someone decides to try the crazy stuff I blurt out lol
funny how I won’t drink my coffee from a polystyrene cup but I’ve molded it with my bare hands :Sp
