Bionic Putty

I'm playing with putty again. This is because I have a selection of 25g pots scattered around my desk and every so often I pop of the lid of one of them and have a jolly good squidge, (that's not a real word is it?).

The irresistible thing about Bionic Putty for me is the colour changing properties. I've got 3 colour changing varieties, orange, blue and green. If I take one out of its pot and and give it a really good squash and stretch the colour changes start.


As it softens and warms up, the colour changes. The orange goes to yellow, the green goes to supposedly yellow, but I'd say more of a really light lime green, and the blue turns white. The obsessive thing is, if you stop playing with it, even for a short time, it starts cooling down and changing colour again, so to keep it in its changed state you've got to keep working it.

It's good exercise for the hands too! I've been very tempted to mix all three colours together and see what I get, and whether it will still change colour. My guess is that I'll get brown, changing to light brown. That's not pretty, so I'll resist the temptation for now.
