Bodge JobsIf you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of duck tape, it's not worth fixing at all, my old mate said minutes before that nasty business with the hammer and a roll of duck tape. Tell us of McGyver-like repairs and whether they were a brilliant success or a health and safety nightmare.

Looks like good stuf...... have you ever tried something called "polymorph"?
It's a plastic that looks and feels a bit like white nylon at room temperature - hard but flexible. However it fuses at about 70'C so you can "melt" it in hot water and make little plastic pieces out of it. It's truly amazing and occasionally very useful. A bit like this stuff by the sound of things.

About £3-4 on feabay..... will get you a small bag and it's very handy to have in.
Especially if you have small girls who are forever breaking/losing small plastic parts for their toys.
I've made dummys for dolls, handles for small tools, brackets for fridge doors, all sorts of stuff
My 5-year old had her hair cut by about 4 inches the other week. I used some of this stuff to make a couple of little paintbrushes from her hair & she was delighted with them.
