Welcome to our Inventor’s Challenge! I will be talking about what the inventor’s challenge is, and how you can participate
Our inventor’s challenge is being sponsored by a company called SUGRU.
Sugru wants to encourage creativity
Instructables wants to encourage sharing
Worthington Libraries want to do all of those things!
So what IS SUGRU?
THIS is sugru. It looks weird, but what it can do is endless!
Here are examples of ways that SUGRU has been used by other inventors:
Repairing and waterproofing shoose
Adding grips and handles to everyday objects
Repairing appliances
Heatproofing pots
Hacking and “bounceproofing” breakables
Repairing electronics and cables
In order to “fix the future”, here are some things to know about what SUGRU can do:
(Play Video): Here is a glimpse at what SUGRU can stick to. Watch the rest of the SUGRU youtube videos for more great videos
Now that you know that sugru can make your things…. (fixed, softer, better)
We want to see what you can come up with!
(self-explanatory)
You can use SUGRU to fix something of yours that has been broken for a while…
Modify something you like into something you LOVE
Turn everyday items in to AWESOME items
Create your own unique designs
Or build and rebuild works of art
Each of you will take (x amount) of SUGRU home with you and then we want you to:
Discover what you can fix, hack, make or design…
Keept track of all your steps. We want you to share your work!
We will be regrouping for an Inventor’s Fair! Share what you’ve made/fixed/hacked, and how you did it
Projects from the Inventor’s Fair will be uploaded to INSTRUCTABLES, to show the world what we made!
Give attendees SUGRU + have my business cards out for questions.
