Duct tape, Man’s greatest micro engineering accomplishment. It’s strong, waterproof and it glows like some magical metal shark skin alloy. Why aren’t we wearing this stuff? More »
In case you missed it, there is a bigger, badder duct tape in town. Used mostly in the nuclear power, shipping and steel industries, this stuff can handle just about anything.
Duct tape was the perfect medium for Instructables user seamster to craft this cool-looking Dark Knight-era Bat-mask for his mug. Halloween’s just around the corner, and no everyone can’t go as Sarah Palin, so if your costume/dominatrix supply shop is sold out of knee-high patent leather boots, librarian glasses and $US5,000 dresses from Barney’s, consider following along here.

We all know duct tape has a million uses—but did you know that the actual figure is a million and one? It’s true—a bunch of geeks confirmed it when they succeeded in building a PC case entirely out of the sticky stuff. You laugh because it’s stupid, but you have to be impressed with the amount of thought these guys put into the project. They even managed to keep all of the components and the structure itself secure using rolled up duct tape support beams. If you would like to do the same for some reason, complete instructions are available on the project site. [Icrontic]
