## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA2504:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA2504:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

They look a lot like sushi rice, but don't eat 'em - these are **Low Temperature Thermoplastic Beads**! Also known as "Friendly Plastic", "Instamorph", "Polymorph" and many other names

These 100g bags are full of ivory-colored polymorph plastic beads with a low melting point of about 60°C (140°F). Heat up some water with a kettle or microwave, then dump the beads in. They'll turn clear and start sticking together into a wax-like blob. You can then knead, mold and shaped the blob **by hand** and left to harden. Once hardened, it has the feel and durability of polyethelene and a translucent white color. Don't like the shape? Simply place it back into hot water, it will soften and you can re-shape it as many times as you like!

This is the ultimate plastic in versatility! Kind of lying somewhere between 3D Filament and Sugru. Make custom repair parts, tools, handles, prototypes, props or crafts, and much more. Adafruit are selling them in 100 gram bags which is just enough for most robotics, electronics or craft projects.

**This plastic is non-toxic, lead free, biodegradable, and best of all reusable by just heating it back up again!**
