    Great tips. At our work if we have a partial used tube of silicone cocking we want to reuse, we wrap the open end in packing tape then squirt the silicone into the tape. This way instead of having harden in the tube it hardens outside of it.

    The tape story stick was my favorite. I also liked when something fell in the background and made a crashing noise, DiResta immediately went into take 2 mode and just started over.

      Dustin Penner That's tape two, didn't you hear?

    • @secret0sounds
      @secret0sounds 9 лет назад +1

      Dustin Penner I know people using drywall tape (the paper non-sticky kind) as a story stick. Of course you need to have that around, but that would stretch less than masking tape and not upset the trolls as much.

    • @dpmakestuff
      @dpmakestuff 9 лет назад +2

      Rick Ramirez So just long strips of paper? Thats not a bad idea. Tape it down, make your marks, roll it up.

  • @foxxgreen1993
    @foxxgreen1993 9 лет назад +4

    Great tips! The story tape idea seems rather useful, especially for someone who doubts there own measurements constantly.
    More of a recommendation than a tip, but I really like using Craft tape, or gum tape. It's craft paper packing tape which isn't sticky until you add water, or sometimes I use a glue stick if I want extra hold. It's great as you can cut strips of, shape the pieces, and lay out and plan with it before sticking it down with out fear or losing adhesion. It's also easier to cut multiple pieces to length, using another as a guide. After wetting it, you still have about 10 seconds to re-position it and slide it about a bit to get it into place. I use it most for cardboard, as it blends into the natural craft color, and makes raw edges and angles on something like a box look extremely clean.
    When you go to store the tape, the roll has a tendency to unravel, as it's not adhered to itself. what I do is wet the very edge (usually with my tongue) and stick it to the roll so it can store without unraveling.
    Hope that helps someone! Thanks again for the tips.

  • @sixpack595
    @sixpack595 9 лет назад +7

    When taping wire we use what we call a "courtesy wrap" with the electrical tape. You fold over the corner after you pull to break the tape at the end of the wrap. That way you (or the next guy) don't need to hunt for the end of the tape to unwrap it at the end of a pull or when disconnecting something. Helps find the end of the roll too.

  • @RicardoJunqueira

  • @Kilbot192

    Same concept, but I always just fold a little quarter inch tab on the end of a roll of tape. Doesn't waste much and it's easy to roll off again.

  • @Vikingwerk
    @Vikingwerk 6 лет назад +1

    A few of my own tape tricks:
    1. If you find yourself mounting an item with those blind holes that go over screw heads on the back(think routers, battery backups, other electronics) a handy way to transfer the screw pattern to the wall is to put a piece of painters tape on the device, make a rubbing of the holes, pull the tape off, and stick it to the location to mount, and use it to transfer the pattern for mounting screws.
    2. Aluminum Duct Tape. This stuff is crazy versatile. Because it is foil, it holds its shape a bit, so it can be folded and then pressed into weird gaps, I've used it for making stencils, being totally opaque makes it great for blocking light, it holds amazingly well, and survives heat and sunlight where plastic duct tape fails quickly. I keep a roll on hand at all times.
    3. Tape vice: This one I learned/discovered recently. I was working on a small tin box, and needed to be able to work on the top with both hands, and had no clamp. I pulled off a strip of painters tape, and laid it sticky side up on the table, then used two more to fasten it down, pulling it tight. Then I stuck the tin to the face up tape, and was able to do a fair amount of detailed work to it without it moving at all. Probably a no-brainer, but i'd never actually seen it done before.

    Dooooood! your tongue trick for finding the end of tape is pure money! I watched this video a few months ago, which is kinda strange for me to spend 22+ min watching a video about tape but I'm so glad I did. it saved me from losing a lot of blood the other day when I impaled my shin on a piece of stainless steel pipe in my cluttered shop. it looked like a shark attack. blood everywhere and continuing to bleed as I was frantically trying to get a good pressure dressing on it. anyway long story short, your tip came in very handy. maybe even life-saving. also have been using the tip about using the edge of a sheet of glass to cut the tape down a lot. used it again just today as a matter of fact. so just wanted to say thanks

  • @MusicForTheSoul221

  • @ambuehl986
    @ambuehl986 9 лет назад

    I worked HAZMAT for a while.. Using duct tape to tape off our masks and suits (in relatively safe jobs i.e. fuels and liquids) we would fold 2 inches or so of the tape to make little pull handles. this worked well when we were already suited up and gloves on to be able to find the end and pull tape as we needed it. The story stick tape is an awesome tip. As always great work fellas!

  • @JayBenedictBrown
    @JayBenedictBrown 9 лет назад

    In case anyone doesn't know about gaff tape, it is used a lot in audio/visual setups to hold cable because it can be readily removed and the adhesive stays on the tape and not on the surface to which the tape was applied.

    @roberterickson77 9 лет назад

    Would patiently wait for any of your videos. I've used narrow stretch wrap for years on trim and lumber, but never thought about it for straps.
    One thing I do differently on "sealing" the tape is use a thin bead of caulk along the edge and then wipe it clean. Has worked perfect on decorative and pinstriped walls. The method you showed is the same concept. Different methods, same result.
    The tape story stick is gold. Not earth shattering as you put it, but insightful and something I will definitely consider when I visit a new lead. Hope to catch you next time I'm in the borough.

    If your car window gets broken use overlapping clear packing tape. It worked amazing for my wife's back hatch glass when the defroster shattered her window in freezing winter temps. The tape lasted a week(in snow), didn't flap in the wind like a garbage bag and was transparent. Best of all I was able to put it on in a few minutes by myself without needing a helper to hold a piece of plastic.

  • @dirtyshirtinfo
    @dirtyshirtinfo 6 лет назад

    To elaborate, the gaffer tape I'm most familiar with is always black (as shown) and has a fabric quality to it. I buy it online and from the Guitar Center. It is incredibly strong and does not leave residue behind on carpet or other surfaces. It's not cheap, about $20 a roll. It tears into strips very nicely with no blade required. It can be inserted into a walking-dispenser stick and applied in this manner for long runs. Dog ear the end when sticking it on itself as it's difficult to release.

  • @Sembazuru
    @Sembazuru 8 лет назад

    The tip of wrapping tape around tool handles for use in the field is like a tip I got for backpacking. Attach a couple strips of duck/gaffer tape to one's water bottle. I guess in this case the water bottle is the tool for the backpacker. (Different from day-hikers who usually have a source of cold water before heading out, a day or two in the bush the only water available is the same temperature as the air (or creek temperature, but will warm up to ambient quickly), so not sweating and messing up the adhesive of the tape...)
    I'm also thinking the uneven joint could use the stretch wrap instead of tape. Don't have to worry about adhesive transfering from the tape to the workpiece.

    Hi Jimmy. About this sealing technique you made, you wait the white paint dry before applying the black one, I assume, or the two paints would mix together. Sometimes, when you remove the tape, doesn't the white paint peels off since it is dry over the tape?
    Awesome video, btw! The tip about wrapping a package with stretch wrap was very cool and handy!

    I apply a layer of clear packing tape (especially the thick type from Canada Post) as a laminate to impart reinforcement, strength, liquid resistance, etc., to papers like drill and tap size charts, working drawings, etc. for posting on the walls of my shop, or maps and other papers that may be exposed to rough conditions of use. Also serves as a dry erase drawing and writing surface,

    Warming masking tape by giving it a quick zap in the microwave oven gives it just the perfect level of adhesion and flexibility to work with. Well worth a try!
