Book Reviews of Ductigami: The Art of the Tape
Book Review: Totally Improper!! Total Shame & wast of time/$
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this book as a slightly serious gag gift for our Pastor who loves Duct Tape & WD-40 & believes that it can fix anything :o) I thought it would be great to put into his Christmas bag, boy was I WRONG!!! I couldn't believe the pictures in this. So glad I looked through this before I wrapped it up, never thought I'd find what I found in it. Yeah I get it art is art but you don't have to put Naked & 1/2 naked people/statues & in the pictures holding or modeling something with Duct Tape I mean come on. It's porn with Duct Tape people!! It just totally ruined the book & my whole plan cause I know it would've made a great gift. It wasn't just 1 page either I counted at least 5 pages or more that needed to go & you can't rip them out because on the opposite side is the final directions for the prior projects. Some of the art work was cute, like the dogs w/ the Duct Tape rain coats but the other pictures ruined it so I'm returning this.Book Review: Interesting but with some inappropriate content
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered this on behalf of my daughter for a Christmas gift for one of her older brothers. I didn't take time to read all of the reviews and we received the same unpleasant surprise of some toilet humor and a few suggestive or nude images in the 2006 edition. p26 - apron on Eve in a famous painting of the Garden of Eden (wish I knew the original artist -- left this one untouched since the duct tape apron covers Eve); p50 - tool belt on a nude female angel sculpture (I duct taped over this one) & p76 - older yet suggestive female shower curtain picture (again, duct taped over). The projects look interesting, so it's my hope that it will still be enjoyed at Christmas with a roll or two of duct tape.Book Review: Ductigami

I bought this book for my 14 year old daughter who LOVES to make things out of duct tape and to decorate with it. She was already making wallets from a video she found on the internet but this book gave her a much simpler way to make them. She absolutely loves this book. For those adults who make negative comments about this book not teaching enough crafts, you really have to ask yourself what were you expecting to be able to make out of tape??? It is a fun thing for kids to do and my daughter loves to make things and give them as gifts. She uses her own creativity to modify some of the items in this book. It's great for kids or young adults who are looking for something to do with idle time.Book Review: Ductigami: The Art of the Tape

Finding a book on duct tape projects is no easy task. Thank goodness for Amazon.com! There were two books that I could have chosen from. This one was the most straight forward with easy, succinct directions. I purchased this book for my 10 year old grandson to make his duct tape projects from. I highly recommend prior to purchase, you take the time to review the book on-line. You will have no problem matching the book to the individual. Not only was the book appropriate, it was cost effective and arrived in no time. I am always blown away with items purchased from Amazon.....you will be too.Book Review: Buy the older edition
Summary: 2 Stars
The older edition (not available, looks like, though abebooks may have it) is the way to go. Exactly the same projects, without the un-funny "man show" misogyny and toilet humor. I would give that edition 5 stars, if Amazon had it. I bought this one because I needed my own copy, but I think I'm going after the old one. This one really is a turn-off - makes me not want to have anything to do with it, to be honest. I'm glad my library had the old edition and I read that one first.
