Patch up a hard shell suitcase Fix a hole with mesh

After several years of long haul flights my hard shell suitcase finally cracked. Of course, its 2 year warranty had just expired and I didn't have travel insurance for that trip. All it took to fix it was 1 mini pack and some wire mesh inside the case for support, then a second mini pack for a smooth finish on the outside of the case. $4 of sugru to fix a $400 hard shell suitcase is a pretty sweet hack.
