heh, those pictures of the person duct taped in the sleeping bag reminded me of some similair fun i once had duct taped in a sleeping bag, the difference is that i was conscious when they did it, and stayed in it for about 6 hours. here' s a pic of when it first happened http://www.yruu.net/cons/conviviality/Dsc00484.jpg and here' s one from later, after they decided it would be funny to put make-up on me http://www.yruu.net/cons/conviviality/Dsc00511.jpg

On every flight of the Space Shuttle, the crew takes along a roll of duct tape (on some flights it is actually stored as a pile of one-meter strips of tape, on others it is a full roll). Over the years, it has been used for all sorts of things, ranging from replacing velcro to taping down food trays to making a big "fly swatter" to help repair an errant satellite.

But possibly the best use of the amazing grey tape was the "fender" made out of maps, paper clamps and duct tape by the Apollo 17 astronauts for the Lunar Rover. They needed something to keep the lunar dust (known as "regolith") from being kicked all over them as they drove across the surface of the Moon, after the original fender was damaged. You can see it here.

I wonder if any one did a similar design with their wheels...
Or, atleast the tread design.

I've got a good one. This year, one of our engineers found a big box of REALLY cheap soccer balls. (They were Smucker's SNACK PACK brand.) Well, one of them had a leak, suprising that there was only one.

Anyway, long story short, we cut out the bladder from the ball, and about an hour's worth of duct taping later , we have our very own bladderball. It only holds air for about half an hour, but that's half an hour of bizzare fun.

The leak was really about a 6-inch long slash in the bladder, so it took several layers of tape to get it even this good. It is currently in our crate awaiting our arrival in Seattle.

hm.. i guess i'll have to join in on the fun out there.. and bring my friend that sings the duct tape song (- http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...&threadid=2697 -) to drive you all insane whilst you play with said "bladderball".. not to mention the fact that half of everyone there will prolly want to join in on the fun.

what better way to drive university students insane than having a girl sing a very annoying song (funny to me though) and having high school kids goofing off on university turf?

i used to make duct tape wallets and gave them to friends, but then everyone who wanted on got one, so i stoped making them.

one time at summer camp, i made a huge platform up in the trees about 10 ft off the ground consisting of only wood and duct tape, no rope! it was about 6ft by 10ft

A guy on our team wore his duct tape hat... his suit was up at the cottage *sigh* let's see.... in a competition I used to do anytime something on our set broke we'd just kinda plaster on duct tape.
That duct tape purse sounds kinda cool... i just might do that...
Oh, there's a chick at my school that has a shirt with a strip of duct tape across with "your ad here" in permenant marker written on it.
Hm... that's all I have off hand.. I have some nice stories about plastic wrap tho.....
*hugz to all as alwayz*
