Duct tape
Posted by Don Brown.
Coach on team #374, 49th Infantry: Icebreakers, from Chugiak and East High Schools. Posted on 1/17/2000 12:48 PM MST Does anyone know about a limit on the amount of grey duct tape we can use? We got a roll as part of the kit, but cannot find it anywhere on the parts listing. Thanks! |

In the past there were specific rules attached to the usage of duct tape. Hey! Have you ever watched The Red Green Show (PBS). If you are a fan of duct tape he is the man. He creates some great mechanical/engineered mechanisms with duct tape. He also has a video set ( 4 tapes ) they are required viewing of all our students on the long bus rides. Wait that could be termed as cruelity(sp) to children. |

Either the roll of Duct tape was a mistake by the kit packers at FIRST or someone has played a trick on you. Now there's an interesting idea... Let Woody take a year off and let Red Green write the contest rules. The 'Handyman's Secret Weapon' would be the only additional (purchased) kit material allowed. Of course, anything coming from a landfill would be legal! ![]() |
