Engineering Flowchart

The original version of this image (featuring duct tape) has been floating around for a bit, I just updated for the 21st century. I gave a couple packs of Sugru to some of my engineering friends — one of them, after using it to repair a cracked outdoor fountain pump, said “this stuff is better than duct tape!”, and thus…

Pick up some Sugru in the shop!

I don’t know who made the original image. If you know, please post in the comments so that I can give them credit. Thanks!

UPDATE: Pete Prodoehl offers his own Adafruit-infused take on it — nice work, Pete!

  1. I’m sorry, but while this flowchart seems useful, it can definitely be improved upon.

  2. I suggest you file this under Useful Stuff as well as Tools so it’s easier to find while browsing the store.

  3. It’s not accurate, there’s no hammer!
