duct tape repair
on: March 21, 2017, 06:09:04 AM
I have used this wicker tray to organize paperwork and hold odd bits of kit that I need handy at an outdoor event where I work (Florida Renaissance Festival) and unfortunately, it has seen better days.  On Sunday, the bottom completely fell out of it.  Thankfully, I had a roll of duct tape and made the field expedient repair you see here.  It only needs to last another week and I'll try to replace it before the next festival, if I remember. :whistle:

Don't replace it, just use Gorilla tape to repair the duct tape fix.  :D

I would think gaffers tape would qualify. That stuff is priced like gold though 😧
I knew my wife was a keeper when she transitioned from calling it a knife thingy to a multi-tool.
