Adding to Duct Tape mobile display

 

As you can see in this picture the map on the right is of the United States holds 50 rolls. The left side for the rolls of Duct Tape from World countries is pretty full. With little or no space to add another 108 rolls.

The solution was to build and add another panel for new rolls of Duct Tape added to the collection. This panel had to have a cutout in the lower left corner to allow for the wheel used to move the display around for storage.


Not a very good picture but if you look close you can see third panel just behind the new panel with the cutout on the left. So now there are two panels with world maps to display new rolls on from world countries (108) I do not have in the collection yet.

So what world countries do I still need Duct Tape from? Good question. And here is the list of countries I need rolls of Duct Tape from to complete the collection.



Decisions, decisions. Here is Steven's wife taking a break from her work after helping build a new home sponsored by the Fuller Center's Pay It Forward program. They sent roll # 90 from Qatar.

They made another trip to El Salvador for a project in 2022 and added a roll from there to bring up the count to 91.

  

My latest quest is to get a signed roll from William Kamkwamba in Malawi, Africa. He wrote a book about his building of a windmill to produce electricity for his family when was growing up. Today he heads up the Moving Windmills Project Innovation Center in Malawi dedicated to teaching and educating young people in his country about renewable energy.
