New Duct Tape Roll List

 

The time has come for a change in tactics. Since 2004 I have been collecting rolls of Duct Tape from world countries. To date I have 91 rolls of Duct Tape in the World Duct Tape Collection. A coin, like the one pictured above will be engraved and given to anyone that adds a roll, to the collection of Duct Tape from a country on this list that I do not have. There are only 200 of these coins in the world. Here is the list of world countries I still need Duct tape rolls from to complete the collection. Send you roll and story of what country it is from, who you got it from and how you got it and I will send you your engraved 1 of 200 World Duct Tape coin.

OK so if you are still reading this post lets look at the collection to date.

The question is, what do you do with the rolls of Duct Tape and how do you display them? 

For people new to the World Duct Tape Collection. The first goal was to get a roll of Duct Tape from each of the 50 United States. This took a few years but here they are displayed on the right around a map of the U.S. On the left is the first half of the Duct Tape rolls from around the world. As you can see this side is full and I needed to add another panel to the display unit.


This project has got me back on the hunt for the 100+ rolls that I need to finish out the World Duct Tape collection. With a new world map and some scrap wood I was able to frame up a third panel to hold more rolls of Duct Tape.

The three panels when displayed look like this. 

Now the display has a lot of other parts to it and when set up people can check out the details on each individual roll of Duct Tape in the collection. The log books record the date, pictures and story behind each roll of tape and the people that sent the tape to me. There is even Duct Tape from the International Space Station that is signed by 15 astronauts while they worked on building it!

 

And lastly the entire World Duct Tape collection needed to be self contained in a nice space saving package that could be transported and rolled around for display. 

If anyone is interested in having the World Duct Tape collection put on display please contact me.

For more details and the stories on the collection and rolls go to my ducttape2thefuture.blogspot  blog.

And if you want to take on the challenge of getting a roll of Duct Tape from the list of countries at the start of this post or know of someone that might be able to get a roll to add to the collection let me know. 

Rolls can be sent to Dick Anderson  11672 Center Hill Road Darlington, Wisconsin 53530
