Introduction: Mounting Brackets

This is a project I made using Sugru. Sugru is a very interesting product that has several very interesting qualities. It is: heat resistant, waterproof, conducts electricity, is flexible after it dries and is very strong. I decided to make mounting brackets for unframed artist's canvas. These are thicker than most brackets will allow. I also wanted to make them to integrate with the art piece so that they added to the art.
