ShapeLock -- Shape-then-lock Design Plastic

Build your invention now without machine tools. Create super-strong custom parts, prototypes, molds, servo brackets, robot housings, sculptures, science projects, and more. It's rapid prototyping using only your hands!

Space-age plastic melts in a microwave or hot water at 160oF, then remains safely moldable by hand until it cools and locks rigidly at room temperature. Simply reheat to re-shape as often as you like.

This easy-to-use, exciting material is non-toxic, lightweight, machine-able, and paint-able, plus it can be even be colored with hobby-shop pigments. Full instructions are included.
