Funny things to do with 33 tape?

[masterinbama]

To cover up the clock on your VCR that constantly flashes 12:00.

Which end of the hot dog gets the grounded conductor?

You use the larger end of the hot dog for the neutral LOL

I learned the hard way not to use 33 as LO/TO on a S.P. switch. Tape came loose on one end and the tension flipped the switch on. Boy did I feel stupid. Didn't get shocked (caught it with the pen-tester).

You learned not to tape under tension. The 33 LOTO handbook says to tape the switch without stretching the tape. It takes a whole roll to LOTO this:

The end you eat first... to give the hot end a little time to cool down :roll:

That is a good one!

I've used it as a pull string to pull flex or mc connector into hard to fish cut-in-box. Wrap the threads of the connector twice so that they still fit through the KO and dangle 18" (or more). You have to be gentle and patient, but it works.

Wrap around pants leg at boot top to keep weed seeds, snow, etc out of boot while hunting. Make a fancy knot in rope, look it over, then wrap with a layer or two just to drive your brother,the knot guru, nuts.

A small piece goes well over your " engine needs service'' light.

Tape up your ears before playing rugby, works well just wrap it around you head a few times, taking it off is what sometimes hurts.

tape a piece of paper towel on your finger tip so you don't bleed all over the place.

I'm sure the 33 tape would not hurt near as much as removing this.

Check out Youtube for the Duct Tape Bandit

+1 to that...just don't wrap it too tight

Wherever I am, a roll of 33 or 88 is not far away.

For the blowguns...1/2" pvc, ear pro (the ones that are flared at the end) and the metal coil from inside a wire nut. It works quite well:grin:

Tape the handle down on the little sprayer next to the faucet, point sprayer to where victim will be standing while washing hands, makes me laugh every time.

Take a full roll and wrap in a couple small screws, washers, whatever and then chuck it up to the guy on the roof, ladder, whatever.

1. Small piece to cover up that annoying engine warning light on the dash of the van that insists on being on ALL the time.

If the problem that caused the light to illuminate is corrected or intermittant, disconnect the vehicle battery and wait 20 minutes for the computer to reset.

2. Lock out Tag out device to safely keep the breaker in the off position of the circuit you're working on so that nobody can come along and energize it.

Well you need red #33 to do that.

One of my guys thought it would be nice to make a steering wheel cover out of about 3 different colors. Man was I pissed!!

here is how we cooked hot dogs when working on high rise buildings because you didn't have time to go down 15 flights of stairs to eat.

Stick a # 12 conductor in one end of the hot dog striped about 1 in on the end now do the same at the other end of the hot dog then plug it into a 120v outlet for less than 1 minute - cooked to perfection.

Another good reason for tamper proof receptacles!
