Saxaphones means 9"(length) and 7"(width). he added an extra 7 by axident.

You vould probably use the bottom of a kleenex box for this

Etch3 says: Jun 22, 2009. 8:17 AM

you could just take a paper bag and cover it with DT and make the handel.

Cliquer01 in reply to Etch3Jul 2, 2011. 11:03 AM

good idea

CoolHat17 in reply to Etch3Dec 1, 2010. 3:52 AM

I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to make a Planner out of Duct tape? Also- How do you reinforce your bags?

bg_askins says: Dec 7, 2010. 6:12 PM

i've made a few DT bags and wallets. i add a flap with magnets and extra pouches.

paigewilson says: Jan 18, 2010. 4:16 PM

Make sure to reinforce the shoulder straps, for they come loose often if you use it and have heavy things in there.

This is cool but doesnt the glue fail eventualy?

Nope, Duct tape = all powerful. xD

People have claimed that they've used their duct tape wallets for 10 years and nothing's really happened to them.

I wouldn't know. I lost my wallet a few weeks ago. D:

Sunbanks says: Aug 11, 2007. 10:43 PM

I made one of these, everyone at school loved it

eyeballer103 says: Aug 6, 2006. 8:08 PM

I did this about 2 years ago and my sister loved it. Try putting a front pocket on it. I also got some clear and purple duct tape cut a strip of it and weaved them to make a cherboard effect.

burchb says: Nov 23, 2005. 10:51 AM

Did this for my daughter with purple and red tape. She loved it. I also made a closer. I'll post pics when I get a chance.
