Sugru bumpers for my iPad

My iPad screen shattered a couple of months ago when it fell and landed on one of its corners. It was in a case, but even that failed to save it. What was the point of carrying it in a bulky case in the first place?

I remembered this bouncy iPhone bumper video I saw and decided I'd give that a try after I got the screen fixed.

It's here! Shipped from the UK from Sugru. Got it in a week.

Split the plasticine-like contents of one foil pack into two blobs. Used two foil packs for four corners.

Moulded the blobs into smooth shapes with a soapy finger. The plasticine texture tends to stick to your finger and pick up finger prints, so a finger dipped in soap water will glide over it.

All done!
