Signing UpStep 1: Duct tape fabric
I made the hammock out of strips of duct tape Arranged in a linear fashion to give it the best strenth. But if you weaved the fabric it may also spread the load better.
First cut 3, 2 metre lenths of duct tape and put them next to one another (sticky side up) . Then Put strips going across ways on top of the other duct tape, like shown in picture 5.
After that lay 2, 2m strips of duck tape along the the surface of the other duct tape strips like shown in picture 6 & 7.
You will need to reapeat this 4 times. Do not join them together yet keep them individualy!

Always one guy. Your picture fits you perfectly. I feel like I already know everything about you.
BTW it's three dots in an ellipsis like you attempted, not four.
Four would be used at the end of a quoted sentence. How do you like it?

And, by the way....
Yes, my picture does fit me perfectly....
Also, four would not be used at the end of a quoted sentence....
It would still only be three used, if done properly....
Four would be used when you made a typo....
....OR, when you're doing it on purpose for some inane reason....
See, an ellipsis can be followed by a comma, an exclamation point, a question mark, a quotation mark, or many other forms of punctuation....
But not by a period....
Another fun fact....
Did you know that the ellipsis is an accepted substitute for the phrase 'et cetera'....?

Some claim origins in the military where it 'shed water like a duck's back' and the supposedly original term (duck) was coined .. however there is (in my fairly extensive, but certainly not completely exhaustive research) absolutely zero documented evidence about that; only hearsay and old wives tails. As there's evidence behind the name 'Duct tape', I stick with it as the right term. But I only make comments like the above with tongue in cheek...
The funny thing is, while it has been patented as Duct tape, and is most commonly marketed as Duct tape (even by the Duck brand name), it would seem it was never used to tape up ducting or ducts - that would be the realm of 'aluminum tape'... which is just more fuel for those who argue ferenvtly that it should be named 'Duck' tape.
As I said, my comment was tongue in cheek. I never bossed him around. I never told him what to call it. I made a comment that was an obvious joke. Did you even read what I wrote in either of the posts?
