duct tape is amazing! :) a non-serious thread

Published

apparently duct tape has many uses of which i was not aware. i am beginning to think this is the greatest invention since sliced bread. :idea:

i learned last week in micro that duct tape is actually a less painful approach to treat warts than typical "medical" approaches (ie. freezing them off). this was news to me!

what unusual uses do you know of for duct tape - medical or not??

I ten bar at nights to put me through school. (Almost done with that!!) Anyway, it's usually pretty busy and I get cuts and scrapes on my hands all the time. Whenver I have a cut that won't stop bleeding, I wrap my finger in duct tape. Regular band-aids don't hol up because I am constantly washing dishes and they fall off. I don't know if it is the adhesive on the tape or the pressure that I apply it. But it stays on and works pretty well. Go figure!!!!!!
