Sugru

[tim_n]

Have you modified any of your bushcraft gear with Sugru, if so, what? I'm hoping to repair one of my self inflating mats with it...

Used it for quite a few things, fixed my favourite fly swat, repaired my phone case, made a lip on a drain pipe, made nocking points on a bow string. Had one failed repair on a pair of boots, I put it down to being a porous surface, Im sure they say it works for non porous only and it does dry quite hard. For this reason I have my doubts about your intended repair of an air mattress; get a quick mattress repair kit and save yourself some time. Unless of course you are experimenting, if so have fun and think of a few jobs to do with it at once or you always seem to end up with a blob in your fingers and a "what can I use this for" question in your head.

Had to google it to be honest and its very impressive stuff. No idea what i would use it for yet but will probably buy some soon.

 

[spandit]

I doubt it's suitable for your air mat but it's good stuff anyway so buy some

 

[tim_n]

They've got a sort of instructable on their website for repairing air mats

I just got some for review and will be trying it on all sorts of things - so far a plumbing repair....
I will be posting later!

You can make your own substitute by mixing cornflour into silicon sealant

I have some. I've fixed the buttons on my car alarm remote with it, Fixed a fraying cable on my laptop mouse and covered the heads of some keys for easy ID... It's great stuff !!!

I held my thermarest together for years with a leech (self sticking innertube patch) and plenty of gaffa tape.

Ah, this stuff looks amazing, I will def. be buying some. I just looked at the company's history and read Jane, the founder's story. As a designer myself, it is a really inspiring read and she went to the same college as I did, so it is worth buying some of her sugru just for that fact alone

It's good gear, keep it in the fridge to extend its life. I've fixed the feet on my kenwood mixer, bump corners on a glass signalling mirror, iPod car lead and quite a few other bits

 

[tim_n]

Just fixed the baby bath!

I've put some ears on a plug I always struggle to pull out of the wall!! A lip guard for my TI mug, fixed my laptop cable, edge guard for my crook knife & loads of bits I can't even remember

 

[shack]

just making some ear plugs (curing as we speak) 'heard' good reports and pretty good value.

It's one of those products that I love the idea of and had to have but then suddenly thought, what can I use it for?

I've actually used it on a surprising number of things - padding on both baby gates to stop it damaging my walls when swung open, identifying buttons on bluetooth earphones, loft hatch padding, needle file handle, ipod cable orientation marker, cable repair for sat nav, key markers, toy padding

Used it to cover a tear in my yeti gators.... Unfortunately it didn't last 😞
