Step 4: Puncture Repair Kit

SNC11172.JPG
When going out on a bike ride a puncture repair kit is an absolute must! punctures can strike anytime anywhere and to anyone! so be prepared!! :D

Steps
1 - Decide how many patches you want and what size combinations you want
2 - I used a small strip of paper to keep all the small pieces together (optional)
3 - Put the kit into the altoids tin, use a small piece of bluetack to keep rubber solution in place.

I don't really ride a bike, but I'm going to make a kit as a gift. What is the sandpaper used for?

 The rubber cement that holds the tube patch in place sticks better if you rough up the area around the hole. Some patch kits come with a small piece of metal that resembles a cheese grater for this same purpose.

Puncture = (puhngk-cher) the act of piercing or perforating, as with a pointed instrument or object.

EX. He punctured a row of holes in the cardboard.
