I've been through that conversation as well...thanks for the poof Cath. But more importantly I need to know how to get my husband of his butt to take it off the ceiling & repair the holes he made while installing the ceiling fan last summer !

OMG, Allyson

I've got some on my dining room wall where the drywall was damaged. I'm the only one in the house, so who am I to blame??

What I need to know is how to repair drywall on a shoestring budget.

All right Miss Belle!

If I can do it, I know you can. First off, how big is the hole? If it's not too big, they sell patch kits at Home Deposit for just a few dollars. All you'll need is that, and a spatula.

I'm here for you wild woman, and will walk you through it.

It is neither duct tape nor duck tape , it is technically called "Surrey Automotive Upholstery Tape" in Canada and "Kentucky Chrome" down south of the 49th. You may also find it listed as, "hundred mile an hour tape" (the maximum speed it will hold your vehicle together at).

Duct or Duck Tape! Our retired millwright used this tape to fix everything! We really got concerned when he would start welding! Once he welded the wheel gauge that cranks out the trimmer to the length of 2 x 4 you want to cut to the wax container box and we could not move the trimmer.
We told him he should have used duck or duct tape instead! Johnny
