Duct tape is so versatile. You can make incredibly cool things out of tape. Duct tape is cheap, tough and sturdy. In this tutorial, learn how to make a very cool project - a top hat! Look just like a punk rock Abe Lincoln with this tall top hat made from duct tape. Get creative - try different colored tape and make fun designs!

Step 1:

Start out with a 25 inch by 8 inch duct tape sheet.

Next, tape it into a cylinder shape.

Step 2:

Then make another sheet 15 inch by 15 inch.

After that, trace a circler object that is the same size as the end of the cylinder and another circular object about 2 more inches wider.

Step 3:

Now you cut out the inside circle (the smaller one) and tape it to the top-inside of the duct tape cylinder.

Last, cut out the outside circle (the bigger one) and tape it on the bottom-outside of the duct tape cylinder.
