Morten in Norway softened the corners of this concrete block to make it safer for his son playing in the garden:
“The inexplicable concrete block in the middle of our new garden is now not such a mortal danger to my son (Magnus, 2, in the background, doing what he does best – falling down) any more. His first faceplant, a week ago, needed stitches.” I wondered if the sugru would be soft enough to provide enough cushioning and asked Morten what he thought…
“We thought about this too, and concluded that bruises are preferable to holes in the head. I actually think sugru’s hardness is more or less spot on, and am using it to childproof other sharp edges around the house & garden.”
It’s a simple and potentially great use for sugru if it works well, has anyone else tried something like this?

Did it yesterday and it cured this morning. Amazing stuff, the ideas flow with the possession of having some.
