    Just wanted to point your attention towards my alter-ego 'Murphy' who is now my avatar - He's made form White-Tak and I'm very proud of him :)

    I'll make a guess that White-tack is blu-tack but white :p.

    Hello Murphy, welcome to HWFs.

    Yes white-tak is white blue-tak (although it's a lot softer)

    Thank you for the welcome Addis :)

    That is way cool! He's a very detailed little fella. I'm guessing you have quite a bit of artistic ability. *sniffle* I'm jealous. You DID make him, right?

    I was wondering the same thing... and since I dont know what "blue-tak" is either, I went ahead and investigated the matter personally. My first search was wikipedia, but since I dont think any of these is the tak they are referring to, I went ahead and assumed that google would be an obvious solution. Turns out, "tak" is a extremely difficult substance to research. The best descriptions I found for it is that it is similiar to one of those squishy erasers. Here is a picture and here is a description that helped me to understand what it is.

    Blu-Tack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    It's like a sticky putty that when kneaded / rolled in the hands softens up and allows you to use it to stick things together temporarily.

    White-Tack is just the same except it's white and a bit softer.

    Yes I did make him, I do have *some* artistic ability, I never did art though (only as a compulsary subject years ago in school)

    That doesn't make sense... the only thing you seem to be able to search for is "Blue Tack" and it redirects you to "Blu-tak" which you cannot find by searching for "Blu-tak". Geez! [/ot]

    Strange, it takes me to a blue-tak page, here's what it says:
