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 fun idea of duct taping bubble wrap to the tires of a friend's car so when they back up they think they are being shot at. Consider the book a little like "Saturday Night Live" for laughter sprinkled with much needed information. By the way, the book and a role of the stuff makes a GREAT gift for Father's Day, housewarming parties or the person who has everything. Well worth the purchase price.Read full review
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.

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