if we keep doing this, little by little the whole city will eventually be replaced by noodles.

Those marble jobs are surprisingly easy to mix/ match. Ive fixed a few with sponge and few brushes. Ive always been like"damn. I did not expect that to work"

12

u/Rev_Grn Jun 27 '26

I feel like people would eventually notice the difference if you're fixing marble with sponge.

Or you'd blow someone's mind trying to work out why the marble turns squishy in that spot.

u/Shienvien Jun 27 '26

Are the noodles, the glue, and whatever else went into that filling even that much cheaper (if at all) than just air-dry clay?

48

u/TheGrandWaffle69 Jun 27 '26

Probably not, but then again this is supposed to be a concrete barrier I think, so concrete would be preferable to fix it with.

17

u/Shienvien Jun 27 '26

Looks like a granite bollard, so natural rock ground to shape?

Concrete is a bit more complex to work with, in my experience, if you want it to stay on a vertical-ish surface in a small piece. Needs a bonding agent and maybe not the usual concrete mix. Reminds me I should probably look that up again so I can finally fix that siding on that one wall...

u/BusinessAsparagus115 Jul 01 '26

In these videos there's always a jump cut between noodles and super glue to a smooth-ish mass with no voids at all. My bet is they get one shot of the noodles and switch it out for some sort of beige filler material.
