    I haven't seen it but I know the science gallery in TCD's online shop sells it. Would probably ship pretty quick from Dublintown.

    I would think that it is actually Tadgh O'Connors, the hardware store, down maiden street that sells it, makes more sense than the petrol station..

    Tadhg O'Connors moved from Maiden Street to the Desmond Business Park (up near the Post Depot) a while ago ;)

    Fair play, but i'm sure you'll agree nothing beats being able to walk in and pick it up!

    melts in boiling water and then sets at room temp to a semi-soft nylon plastic like finish.

    Could not remember the name of the stuff until I asked a friend in work this morning.

    Polymorph is the brand name of the stuff they sell in Maplin.

    http://www.maplin.co.uk/polymorph-97325
    Now this stuff Hardens as it sets so its not a soft squishy rubbery feel
    to it that the Sugru might have.

    Also it never hurts to have a stock of Milliput about the place
    handy stuff:
