Polymorph - Ideal for Rapid Prototyping?

I discovered this material whilst researching plastics, it seemed like the ideal way to mock up quick plastic designs.

The Facts

• Polymorph comes as pellets
• It melts at 62degrees - so can be melted in a teacup!
• Hardens in about 5-10 minutes
• Similar mechanical properties to nylon - only at room temperature

I found this material fun to use, sort of like a Play Dough for adults.  It can be easily coloured with powder paint and things like glitter.

It is also a relatively cheap material considering it can be REUSED!! :)

Some issues I found were that you have to be careful with assemblies, especially since the material only sticks to other pieces when BOTH pieces are mouldable, so planning is essential!
