How to conveniently hang almost anything with LEGO and sugru - USB cable desk tidy

LEGO is awesome, but making a USB cable desk tidy with LEGO is even more awesome !!!!!

This is a simple project to show you how to use LEGO to create all kinds of awesome hooks like this fantastic USB cable desk tidy :)

STEP BY STEP:

1: Chose your LEGO piece, we recommend the flat ELGO pieces like this.

2: Press a small sausage of sugru firmly onto the back of one LEGO block and the second piece onto the front of the other.

3: Make a mini pyramid from the sugru with your fingers. (This will help you get a good bond in the next step)

4: Press the sugru firmly onto the end of your USB cable and the other onto the side of your monitor making sure you get a good bond.

5: Finally, gently press the sugru around the edges to get a nice surface finish.

Repeat the proces for the LEGO piece on the monitor:

6: Leave both to cure overnight.

Once cured, you can easily pop your LEGO USB cable on and off your monitor, yay, a tidy desk :)

P.S. YOU CAN REMOVE SUGRU FROM MOST NON PORUS SURFACES :)

sugru is super easy to remove, and if the surface is non porous, should leave no marks or residue.

1: Carefully cut off the sugru using a sharp blade or knife.

2: sugru will remain on the surface

3: Use the back of your finger nails to scrape off the remaining sugru.

4: There will be a smll residue left on the surface

5: Use a dry tissue paper to wipe the remaining residue off.

6: If there is still some residue left, I like to use a baby wipe to wipe the surface.
