Polymorph 

wow amazing stuff... (but U really had no idea what to test it on to show it off! lol) thanks tho mate!! I'#m gonna git me some!

You can get it from Maplin but it's made by Middlesex university. It's called Polymorph.

yeah just add food colouring, and it doesnt matter how much water you use.

thanx recently bought this with no reason an idea how to use it but this was helpful how much water do u need? can u add colour to the plastic? im going to make a pull down lid for covering my car radio so this will work well rather than ejecting my rad every time

How hard does it get? I've seen it used for robotics, and wonder if has problems with handling the stress.

@Nomoreidsleft It's supposed to behave like nylon. I don't really have enough practical experience to comment. Should be Ok unless it gets too hot.

Whoa! Whatever you do don't get it from maplin.. way to expensive. Get it off Ebay for 500grams for 10 pounds! or get 100g for 3 ponds! maplin costs 20 ponds!

Any self respecting English man would use a kettle, surely. By rolling it into a sheet, and then re-heating where i want to fold it, i've made a stand for a GP2x.
