Duct Tape

There are many uses for duct tape, especially here in the South. We have a saying, if you can't fix it with duct tape, it can't be fixed. How have you used duct tape in the past?

Hung a poster with it once when I was 17....it's still hanging there!

Hi...

Why would anybody want to tape a duck?

If you've ever watched the Canadian comedy "The Red Green Show", you'll discover ways to use duct tape that you've never heard of. It is hilarious.

Hi...

How true...I've watched Red Green for quite some time. Wish he were still on TV. I've even got a CD of some of his shows.

Have you heard about the latest duct tape craze? Apparently, duct tape now comes in designs and colors like fabric, and people are making wallets out of them. I had never heard of this until the other day, but now I have seen several tutorials for it on Pinterest.

Thats been going on for a few years. Its expensive as heck. Ive seen about twenty different styles and colors, patterns, etc. But it costs twice as much per foot as the regular tape.
Seems to me the craze is mainly for teens and young "adults" with too much money to throw away on BS stuff (like rims and undercar lights?). I couldnt imagine needing duct tape with flowers or cow spots on it. Maybe camouflage if you hunt, but that's about it.

I have used it to fix all sorts of things

Last year I fixed my fan which decided to detach itself from the stand it came with and break off, I wrapped the fan up with the stand with a thick layer of duct tape, holds up nicely

Yeah, that's what a boy wants, a prom date with her dress duct taped to her.

What brilliant and innovative father came up with that idea?
