> hand-formed room-set silicone

My cheap knockoff version: Two part epoxy cut with sawdust. Not so good at high temperatures, but much stronger.

Is that flexible after it cures, though? My bet is not; it's what you use to repair a cracked engine block. Sugru is for fixing stuff like your flip flops. Different use cases.

If you're going that route, might as well use epoxy putty. And why is Sugru better than epoxy putty?
