Question about theraputty, if anyone knows

[bitblaster]

Hey,

I ordered some theraputty (physical therapy putty... like really thick, firm silly putty, really firm...)

Does anyone know how much 16OZ of it is?

Is that the size of a baseball, or is that larger than that?

I think its a but bigger than a baseball. more like a softball imo.

is that for just mushing around to relieve stress or something else?

that's fluid oz. This would probably be slightly bigger than a baseball.

putty is a fluid though, 16oz is about a pound so it'll be bigger than a baseball. i think flOZ and OZ is aboutt he same anyway.

putty isnt a liquid. its a maleable solid.

then technically so is custard.

bringing this back ontopic... i find chewing somethign or mashign somethign with my hand usually helps me concentrare or relaz so this putty might be a big help

Its to relieve stress, but its extremely difficult to mush around... its difficult to tear apart. Its used in schools for OT / PT. Thats where I've used it before. I ordered the extra firm putty, the regular medium firmness is really hard to tear apart and stuff... Its not regular silly putty, though... its intended for therapeutic purposes, including Physical Therapy.

as for it being a fluid... I don't know exactly what putty is.... but the theraputty I've used before... is VERY hard, not squishy like you'd think... its hard to describe.

Anyway... thanks... I guess the size of a softball does make sense... Its supposed to come tomorrow, so I'll know then I guess... checked the tracking number, is coming sooner than I thought.

Something else... going American Pie style on it?

I guess it's like starch custard, it's soft if you move it slowly but if you apply force it becomes a solid.

I presume it's that type of material? When you get it leave it on a surface overnight and see if it flattens out. If it holds its shape then it's not
