Splash tape--Oh My!

Even one of my poorly done builds is listed here!! Thanks Ray Dobbins for putting this together. I should have posted it for Halloween!

I'd have to agree that it does work well on the LandShark. Hard to believe that was a coincidence?

sometimes I have to shake my head in wonder at how we as a species always have to tear down the things other people enjoy, as if there were anything to gain by making other people feel as if their own opinion doesn't count, and in a world where there's already such an excess of suffering, no less!

jk splash tape is trash

Is this the stuff that's like 35 cents on ebay and falls apart really easily?

I'm a known splasher, though I didn't make Mr. Dobbin's wall of shame...

YET.


But more seriously, what will be today's 'splash tape'... That we'll look back on and think, "God... we actually thought that looked good?"

I had one roll of splash tape. It was black and white. I used it on my lawn mower.
