I used some on a lid for a cast iron pan so I could pick it up without burning my finger, and some on my pellet stove door for the same purpose.
I also used some to mount a mirror to the brake hood on my bike. I'll probably also use Sugru to fix my cell phone, which has a cracked case, but just won't die. |
Sugru looks awesome, I must admit.

...and they have a plan.
The report from the engineers is complete and the park service now has a plan. They're going to cover the monument with scaffolding and set up a tower crane to help remove the 1 ton external marble panels at the pyramidal top and re-attach them with metal brackets because the anchor stones underneath were cracked by the quake. The metal brackets will be hidden from view. They also need to patch 50 panels, but don't expect to need to replace any of them. The work is going to last into 2014 and the monument will remain closed through then. Attachment 39530 |
Closed the whole time? Just have the visitors run to the entry. They'll have a greater memory of their visits.

I feel like I need to keep this thread updated.
They started erecting the scaffolding. It looks like just regular scaffolding. I'm surprised it's strong enough to reach that high. They have special cross bracing at the corners to tie it all together. Attachment 43170 They still have a ways to go. Attachment 43171 I wish I had a time lapse camera set up taking a picture every half hour. It would make a cool video. |
A lattice condom, very avant gardey.
Don't worry about the scaffold, you can be sure OSHA will be all over that sumbitch. |
I notice there seems to be a concentration of damage at around 200 feet high. I wonder why.
|
Maybe because...

Too bad this isn't in Hong Kong they'd probably be using bambo!
