[ Duct Tape Tip ]

Carry duct with out taking the whole roll!!
I'm sure you've had your share of "incidents" where you need to repair a rip in your tent, a broken pole, or you ran out of band-aids! I know I have. If you are like me you don't like bulky tape rolls in your pocket!
Follow these easy steps to take your duct tape expertise to the next level!

1. Find an old plastic card (used up gift cards are great for this. or an old discount card)
2. Grab your duct tape roll.
3. Start wrapping duct tape around the card. A good 7-8 ft is a good length. You can always refill. 4. Trim the sides of the card down with some scissors. Now you've got a flat roll of Duct tape that's travel friendly and ready to rock and roll! No pun intended.
What are your great duct tape ideas? Give us feedback! Post!

I prefer to wrap the duct tape around my nalgene.

Good idea (anonymous). I'd do that with my nalgene but I've decorated it with some stickers. sometimes I'll wrap around a pen since I like to take a journal outdoors...for gear reviewing, of course
