07/02/2001 Entry: "Removing Packaging and Toolbox"

Long time no see ! I actually fleshed out the Removing packaging method from the last post, and added a Toolbox tool.

I've also acquired some duct tape, and it's some fun stuff ! I currently have it bundled in with Electrical tape in the tool index, but it's really versatile enough to be a tool on it's own. One of the uses I probably won't go into on the tool page will be "covering up annoying blinking smoke detector lights in hotel rooms" which I found out last week during my visit to Ithaca ! I forgot to remove the tape after I checked out. Oh my !

Another possibile tool I hope to enter soon is "Correction fluid" otherwise known by the brand name "Liquid paper" or "Wite out". My experiences so far with these has not been good, so until I find a good use for them, I won't be including them in the index. I love the name of the product though - I am certainly trying to use it to correct some product design flaws !

My first product fatality as a result of unbranding happened recently - I figured I would remove the logo from a CD I was listening to, figuring I could stratch off the log on the top side without effecting the music stored on the other side of the CD. Well, that didn't work too well - CD's turn out to be a lot thinner than I though they were. My advice would be to stick to covering logos on CD's with ink rather than trying to remove the logo altogether.
