TRAVEL
Always make sure you have a roll of duct tape with you when you travel--you never know when you are going to lose a quarter panel. And, when you aren't using it to fix stuff, a roll of duct tape duct taped to the dashboard of your car makes a great pop can holder!
Suddenly find yourself in a ditch? Double duct tape over onto itself the long way for an instant tow rope. Heavier cars and trucks may want to add multiple layers.
FIRST AID
Jam a finger
playing basketball? Quick! Eat two popsicles, and duct tape a
stick to each side of your finger. You can use two by fours and
duct tape if you break a leg, or two by eight sheets of plywood
and duct tape for a total body cast
CAMPING
Lawn Chair Webbing Repair
Sun Prairie, Wisconsin's S.S. uses duct tape to replace the webbing in his lawn chairs after the original straps wear out.
CANOE REPAIR
We have had
literally hundreds of folks tell us that duct tape is an
invaluable tool for canoers. When you accidentally rip a hole in
your canoe below the waterline, put a strip of duct tape both on
the inside and outside of the canoe hull (dry it thoroughly
first). This repair has lasted years for some. Some claim that
the repair is more effective if chewed bubblegum is placed in the
hole before the duct tape is applied.
REMEMBER -- DON'T GET STUCK WITHOUT IT !!!
