February 21, 200818 yr ... with duct tape. I saw Ducti wants this thing for 20 bucks, I figured I make one myself for a roll of duct tape at the local dollar store...
February 21, 200818 yr Author Haha, thanks. Actually the first batch of card slots I made don't line up. And on a second thought I might want a tri-fold one instead. So I might make another one later on.
February 21, 200818 yr Not sure where he heard of it... but my son made one for himself a few years ago- he was around 10. Turned out pretty good- he still uses it whenever he has occasion to.
February 21, 200818 yr Author Nice job. I've seen ones where you can incorporate tinfoil to block RFID readers. Did you do that on yours? No I didn't. We don't use RFID up here, and I don't have anything that's RFID-able. It's actually inconvenient for me to have that since we DO have a useful RFID payment system in Hong Kong, which would cause problems if I shielded mine.
February 21, 200818 yr Does the company that makes the stuff still offer the scholarship to the couple that makes the best high school senior prom tux and dress out of Duct Tape? Some of the entries I saw a few years back were awesome; it's amazing what you can do with it.
February 21, 200818 yr My wife made a duct tape wallet back in the day, she's quite creative. I myself never have but you would not beleive the kind of stuff I've fixed with it...Also, s peaking of duct tape one of the times a photo of mine was published in a car magazine was in Car & Driver's top ten back in 1998 or so... it was a photo of a crashed Lincoln Conti Mk9 that was crashed, the bumper cover & fenders were pushed in & the hood was baddly missaligned, the lady used about 3 rolls of duct tape to make sure the hood would not fly open on the highway since the latch was broken. She was a witress at the local Ground Round. When I took the photo she was just walking up to her car and laughing about it, she turned red and said "what else can you do on the side of the road to make sure the hood stays shut?"

I more than likely have that issue. I'll look for it.
