My first Instructable

A week or so ago, the Makerspace got some free samples of a playdoh like substance called Sugru.  In exchange for the free stuff, we were asked to make some cool things and post them on Instructables.

I used a small amount to fill a hole that was drilled too large in my rocket launcher.  Tonight, I created the instructable for using the Sugru.  I suppose filling a hole is not very exciting but since is this is my first instructable, I figured I would blog about it.

Here is the link to the instructable: http://www.instructables.com/id/Fix-a-hole-that-is-too-big-with-Sugru/.  You can see a picture of the plugged hole if you follow the link.

Welding and sugru

Here are pictures of what I did tonight at the Milwaukee Makerspace. First, Matt W. and Dan helped me weld a jack onto my trailer hitch. It is a super strong weld that should outlast the rest of the trailer. They did most of the work but I did get to do some welding. I am looking forward to doing more.

They also had a sugru build night at the space. I tried fixing Tim's broken headphones. I did not hold the pieces together long enough for the sugru to harden so it did not stay. I need to figure out a way to hold it together while the sugru hardens.

I did use the sugru to fill the hole in my rocket launcher where the LED goes. Once that hardens it should be good.

It was another good night at the Makerspace.
