Yes. It's true. I made a ducktape wallet recently. You might ask why, but I didn't had anything to do atm, so I watched some vid's on YouTube and accidentally clicked one. So? Well.. since then I "had" to make it too. And I quite like it. It's totally made out of ducktape. And it's my own design! I have watched several vids but none were really my kinda thing. So I thought to do something diffrent that no one else had. A change pocket! Yes. I also designed that myself. Hope you like it. (don't forget to comment subscribe and rate ★★★★★ on YouTube) Thanks!

Not to be rude, but this is something that belongs in Theopia, not here

I disagree, this forum is a lot about duct tape and it's a creative and well made project, I like :)

WOW. That is a nice wallet, especially considering it's made of duct tape! I like it, but i think I'll stick with my leather one for now :)

I watched Zombieland for the first time the other night and Tallahassee had a duct tape wallet (Woody Haralson for those of you who aren't familiar). Since he is so cool, I want one now.

It looks good but it's way too thick... the way I used to make them to sell them is use a piece of paper for the body and cover it with the tape. Also a great thing to do for good looks is weaving the tape... It's actually pretty easy. Cut it in strips and lay it down then just pull it up and put one under the other... I made so much money on them :D
Good job though I like all the extras you put on it 8)

That's what she said!

I have never made a duct tape wallet, and I have never seen anyone sell them at my school. The only thing I sell is hacked camera circuits that make sparks. It feels good to know that I can make something for free in two minutes that other people will pay five bucks for...

Thanks people!

@gunfreak
It's looks thick from the angle of the picture taken, but actually it isn't that thick. I do not feel anything in my pocket but it's there. I really like it. It's nice and small. :)

Duct-tape.

Duct-tape.

Making tape out of ducks has been illegal for a long time now.



:D

Its cool though, I wonder how long it lasts.
The best thing about making your own wallet is to create the layout you wish, and be able to make as many card slots as you need.

Actually, Duck tape is a trade name so it's not strictly wrong.

The hardware store I frequent actually sells duct tape wallets, They're silver, btw.

Maybe you should go into business making them, there's obviously a market for them. :)
