Never Buy Skinny Tape Again. Make it Yourself With This Sweet Hack.

[@AdiarraS]

AWHHHHHHHHHHH. Heart meltingly adorable dance party at the end!!! Also, great tape tip vid! hehe

[@jamiepollard7857]

I have use for this information but your videos are so darn enjoyable that it's never a waste to watch !

[@jimbobaroobud]

This is so simple and logical that most people would not have thought of this. This is a very clever idea that I'm sure I'm going to use. The pack of playing cards is brilliant. Thanks!

[@LostWax]

Yeah, my dad taught me about using playing cards when you need to be able to adjust something in small increments. Super useful in the right circumstance!

[@jimbobaroobud]

Genius. Sheer genius.

[@NoxGrim]

Wooo! nice and simple :) Thanks for sharing. My "random things drawer" is a whole room, i sleep in it.

[@LostWax]

Haha, love it!

[@marianclairecarino6589]

Awe your daughter is adorable! I thought she was saying "dance dance rub ocean" at first

[@blueplacebo]

Omg your little girl is growing up so cute and adorable. Nice tip, useful, cheap and easy

[@DBrentWalton]

Watched it to learn about cutting the tape, but enjoyed because of the darling dance at the end. Chris, you seem like a really good dad. :)

[@LostWax]

Hehe, just watched it again, I forgot about that end part. So fun:)

[@Krolshi]

omg your daughter kinda looks like Boo, she's so cute

[@DrPandemonium]

Great tip Chris, great dancing too... and your daughter is soooooooo cute and such a happy little soul 😄. I still think your vids are the best way to end the day if you’ve had a stressful one, your voice is like a soothing balm 😊.

[@LostWax]

Thanks John. Funny, I never liked my voice- people always said I sounded mumbly.... Glad it can help you relax!

[@originaltrilogy1]

I'd buy audiobooks with you reading them :)

[@BlindSquirrelGaming]

You saved my life with this video and your daughter is adorable!

[@Latverian_peasant]

This helps a lot. Thanks Chris! And your daughter is so adorable.

[@Mako47]

Stopped by to say....THANKS! I'm doing a custom Clone helmet, and ALMOST bought TWENTY ONE dollar pin striping. I have coloured electrical tape, and all the rest. And let me say, when I saw you raise that X-Wing Pilot helmet, I literally went 'RIGHT ON!' right out loud. HAHA! Wicked!

[@susanyoung2071]

Most Excellent. Quick, easy and mostly dummy proof! Going to try this tonight for a tumbler project I'm working on.

[@violentviolet26]

[@javierespada72]

Thanks for the idea!!! I used a single edge razor with screws and a clamp! works just as well and quick to setup!

[@LostWax]

Nice!

[@emmalinejohnson7882]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I've recently started making and selling hula hoops and it has been such a struggle trying to cut rolls of tape in half with a safety knife, very time consuming. Sometimes my hand slips and I mess, completely ruining an entire roll of tape. I have all of these things and I am going to try this first thing tomorrow. This will make things soo much easier for me.

[@GeneKini]

Nice tip-Thanks for sharing!

[@WitteArtistry]

This is a super clever hack! 🤗💚 Love the DDR break in the middle and at the end :)

[@billebrill8730]

Thank you, I wanted to tape between wire layers on a small 6mm ferrite coil former but only had 15mm transformer tape. I used your idea to make some 6mm wide tape. Great idea.

[@LostWax]

Glad I could help

[@cristagc3259]

Gracias!

[@devshah6073]

Very helpful

[@LostWax]

Glad it helped

[@overthemill]

I cut the entire roll in half on my table saw. Worked great!

[@LostWax]

Nice! What kind of blade did you use?

[@alan_whoneedstiedye]

Great tip.

[@chanellynel]

Brilliant! This is exactly what I was looking for 😆😆 Is there a substitute we can use for the epoxy? 😓

[@TheWoodWerker]

Excellent Video! Thanks for Sharing! Have A Super Week!.....Gus

[@drewscreen]

Excellent tip! Readymade thin model-making tapes can be expensive, and some widths are only available in a narrow gamut of colors. I'm going to have to add a deck of cards to my toolbox. Subscribed!

[@LostWax]

Glad it was helpful for you, thanks for the sub!

[@texasgemtree]

Dude! You rock!

[@LostWax]

no, YOU rock!

[@texasgemtree]

@@LostWax I am using it for tabs for charts I use constantly. The other ones come off too easily or are hard to find. I think I am using white duct tap that is 1/2 wide so cutting it smaller.

[@shubhambagade1237]

Thanks man, saved me some time!

[@LostWax]

Great!

[@eligriggs9221]

A good tip, which I'll use to reduce a roll of masking tape to about .46", and .25" for making a temp bandsaw tire. Cheers!

[@Oilersontop.]

How do you make a split tape roll?

[@Harmonygranger]

Did you make the helmet, in the beginning of this video? If so can you make a video for it?

[@originaltrilogy1]

It is coming according to a previous video, so keep your eyes peeled!

[@LostWax]

Yep, It's taking a little while, but it is coming!

[@originaltrilogy1]

Very keen for this one :)

[@w1designs]

Meu amigo, sua mente é genial, sua idéia é simples, porém maravilhosamente fantástica, muito obrigado por compartilhar, com certeza ajudará muitas pessoas, forte abraço, estou inscrito.

[@Henry-n7n8]

Thank you Sir for this, I needed 1/4'' tape for a project, amazon sells for $3 to $11 per roll, I can't afford that, with your method I can make any size I need, I did try this and it works, might work better if I had a new blade, and you are correct in saying to just have a small point sticking out, thanks again...

[@LostWax]

Awesome, glad it was helpful!!

[@MynaahHvorostovsky]

Very good idea, thanks! (What beautiful little princess!)

[@monimoni8141]

Awesome...

[@LostWax]

Thank you!

[@jeneeveselka3479]

quick question, in your diver's helmate video, what paint did you use? and was it water proof?

[@LostWax]

I think I used Liquitex basics acrylic paint, and yep it was waterproof. It also never hurts to give it a coat of some sort of clear acrylic.

[@cardinalchronos8108]

Awwww the ending was cute

[@nivikita]

Cardinal Chronos: Yes, really cute 😊

[@russdykes6446]

So what's next on the pattern lineup? Are we working on more steampunk armor? Or do you have something even more amazing coming up?

[@LostWax]

I'm not totally sure- gotta get this crazy Star Wars helmet done, haven't thought beyond that..... open to suggestions....

[@russdykes6446]

More steampunk armor for the shoulder? Maybe steampunk boots diy? What about more of that knight armor? That would be cool to. A prop sword made from foam? Just a couple of ideas.

[@Glaswalker1001]

You could use the broken off part of a exacto knife. Wouldn't be as expensive as a scalpel blade.

[@LostWax]

Yep, pretty much anything you have lying around, as long as it is really sharp, and flat on one side.

[@MaggieMidnight]

This is so simple.. And awesome. What kind of dancing game is this?

[@LostWax]

Dance Dance Revolution:)

[@hallavast]

How do you cut 5000'x .250" strips of double-sided tape with liner?

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Awesome! I’m gonna make some skinny jeans ;)

[@originaltrilogy1]

Really great tip, but I spent all my time looking at the helmet...

[@MrCoolstopmotion]

you could just clamp the blade down with a block for spacing instead of gluing it.

[@LostWax]

Totally. As long as it's clamped really well.

[@GMO--ge4ir]

Great idea❗ How'd you even come up with it❓🤔

[@LostWax]

Thanks! Um, not sire how I came up with it, just needed some thin tape strips and you know, necessity being the mother of invention and all....

[@jageo48]

Great method, although it seems superfluous to use two-part epoxy when you're using a clamp.

[@Geeksparanormal]

aaawwwweee.. my four year old was watching this video and said, "Who is that?" I said, his daughter, and she said, "Awe, she's cute" :P thanks for the tip!

[@ellalang6499]

I just need to see the Preview and i'm smiling about your creativ funnyness (thats a word now). video aftermath: YOU ARE CREATIV, LIKE THE IDEA WITH the dancing? how do you combine those things??

[@LostWax]

I just generally record whatever I am actually doing at the time- like the dancing is actually practising for a video I am working on right now.

[@andrewerickson6690]

Hey man 5 years later I want to jump through my phone and hug you

[@LostWax]

Well, that would be....interesting.....

[@wholock0001]

*D A N C E*

[@zoni3gurl641]

I need the whole roll cut not just part of the roll.

[@basilleonardo]

Great tip! If you used a C-clamp for more pressure (and maybe another piece of stir stick on top of the knife) you probably wouldn't even have to glue it.

[@LostWax]

Worth a try!

[@U2BER2012]

Never heard of skinny tape😂!

[@KSNT-TheTaint]

The friggin epoxy costs more than the thin tape at office max. Ummmm no

[@LostWax]

I guess it depends where you get your epoxy, I get mine at the dollar store, so that's worth a look..... and you'll have lots left over for other projects!
