About this product

Product Information

Did you know that duct tape can turn any item of clothing into rainwear? That duct tape over a computer screen will keep your kids from surfing naughty sites on the Web? That a perfect solution for those easy-to-lose TV remotes is to duct tape them to your arm? (Not only won't you lose it, you'll never have to relinquish control over it, either!) But can you also believe that Jim and Tim's creative ideas for duct tape spawned not just one bestselling book, but three, plus a calendar? And now the ultimate collection? With two-thirds of the material drawn from their previous books and calendars and one-third all-new, The Jumbo Duct Tape Book is pure nuttiness to the nth degree. The premise is right there, on page one: "One rule can get you through life. It if ain't stuck and it's supposed to be, duct tape it." But of course it's the intrepretation that counts-like duct taping the gas pedal for cruise control, or duct taping marbles to your pressure points for instant reflexology. And then there's bending the rule-transforming sneakers into golf shoes by punching nails through duct tape and taping it to the soles, saving energy by taping all switches in the off position. Plus cosmetic dentistry (use white tape for the "The Mask" look, silver for the metal-mouth bad guy look), cell phone safety (tape phone to side of head while driving so hands stay on wheel), home decorating (use duct tape for easy drapery tie-backs). You can even convert the book to a "hard cover" by taping a piece of 1/4 inch sheet of plate steel to the front and back covers. It'll last for years!

    In these frugal times, we all try to get more than one use out of everything. The Jumbo Duct Tape Book by Jim Berg, Tim Nyberg and Tony Dierckins (paperback),if purchased with solely this in mind, will disappoint. It is much more than that. The book demonstrates its humor through pictures of the authors involved in seemingly impossible tasks to "illustrate" some of the wild ideas. However after skipping over some of the silliness one finds really good ideas for unique uses for this sticky wonder. Really! For example, use duct tape to remove fiberglass insulation from your body. Or splinters! Keep a roll in your car in case anything should become loose until you can get home and get it fixed properly. There is even a cure for warts supposedly recommended by doctors. One could skip over the ...

  • Easy to read with the large print, and it is not too heavy to hold comfortably..

    Very clever and fun. And, so true! I have used duct tape many times in the past and have a job coming up in the near future (when I find the time)! Great book.

  • Neat!

    I bought this book for a friend of mine as a gag gift because he fixes everything with duct tape! I thumbed trough the pages a little bit before I added it to the gift bag and thought it was neat. Some of the ideas in it are just silly, and they authors are dorks, but it's great for chuckles. =)

  • for a friend

    Got a book on duct tape for a friend, she enjoyed it, but would have liked to see more uses for it.
