@vlrny @LonelinessCorps my favorite was when my daughter made her prom dress out of duct tape.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps we used them as temporary bandages in the dojo, especially for foot/toe wounds (skin tearing on the mats, getting cut by someone else's toenails). Held on well through practice until afterwards we could get the wound properly taped up.

I made a wallet out of #ductTape in high school. I loved it, I was realky proud of my finished project. But a year later I was gifted a nice leather one by my parents, because they thought mine was janky. I didn't have the heart to tell them I liked mine better and felt guilted into using theirs because it was a gift. I miss you, dt-wallet.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps Our youngest was fascinated with making wallets out of duct tape for a while as a teenager. No idea where they picked that up.

There are probably still a few around the house.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps Years ago I fixed the internal workings of a piano pedal with duct tape and a bit of card.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps I'm an unimaginative person. The only thing that I use duct tape for is building Corsi-Rosenthal boxes.

favorite was Dagorhir equipment.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps
Sadly I think the weirdest use I've found is covering the light on my printer. You could still see it through the tape but it no longer lit up the whole room.

@vlrny @LonelinessCorps I’m having a flashback to my teenage years when I’d listen to the radio on my stereo.
I got fed up having to get up from my bed to turn the dial to a different station when I wanted a different song so I fashioned a stick with a camera film case that I duct taped on the end of the stick to turn the dial since it fit so perfectly in the film case.

The stick was long enough I could reach my stereo from my bed. Teens can get really creative when there’s a need 😂
