Book Reviews of Ductigami: The Art of the TapeBook 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: 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.
Book Review: should have checked it out more Summary: 1 Stars
Don't need the filth....suggestive pictures and wording. I suppose the instructions are good but you can get just as good - if not better - info on google. Thought it would make a good gift for my 13 yr old son....had to sensor it. Ridiculous!! Don't waste your money.
