Ahh... am I missing something? What is sugru?

Hacks of the Month

#
Filed under: Hack of the Month!, Wonderful Hackery

This month the standard was so high that we just couldn’t choose one Hack from all the submissions so…..
We broke the rules and selected three and they’ll each get two super packs each :)
There were many more that were right up there making it more difficult than ever to choose – thanks to everyone who sent in pictures, a huge number of them are fantastic and will be making it up onto the blog, gallery and sugru flickr over the coming weeks – so look forward to lots of inspiration!
Here are the winning 3!

Jeremy fixed his 94 year old car with sugru:

“I fixed a leak I had on the radiator of my 1916 ford racing car. It had rusted and made a hole so I made the hole bigger to get rid of the rust on the edges, then I pushed sugru into the hole and flattened it out top and bottom to make a plug. And it works perfectly! It is not a pressurised system so it is safe. The photo of the car about half way through a 500 mile rally to Ireland and back.” This hack really stood out because of just how special the car is and the fact that such a modest little repair could keep it going… awesome !

Justin hacked a screw head onto his PanaVise for quick adjusting. This is so clever! I just know this idea is going to come in handy around here :)

And Sanders great repurposing of his old thermos (as featured on last weeks blogpost ‘Why we hack no.1’) has us completely inspired!

Congrats all 3 and do watch out for the many more great hacks and repairs that have been submitted as they make their way up onto the blog and gallery, there’s some real inspiring stuff. Looking forward to the next month now!
