    Second Sugru Hack - Sky+ Remote

    One of my 5 darling children (identity unknown) decided to peel off a strip of the rubber backing on the Sky+ remote. This bugged me every time I held it. So I decided to have some fun with a Sugru repair. 

    Before:

    I had a vision in my head for what I wanted to do. Unfortunately I have zero artistic ability. 

    The plan was something like a Spiderman web but this is what I gouged out:

    Then I filled it with orange Sugru:

    A bit of a clean-up later:

    I love it and admire my handiwork (crude tho it is) every time I hold it. The kids are less impressed. Oisín aged 8 said "Dad, the last thing that looks like is Spiderman".

    Hack number 3 (ultra simple) to follow.
