The Struggle To Find Where The Sticky Tape Begins Could Be Over

Whenever I use sticky tape, I find myself struggling to figure where it begins—mostly because I don't use tape dispensers or mark the ends—but my struggle might be over thanks to this new tape concept.
The V-Tape concept design is pretty basic. It's just a plain ol' roll of tape with a little v-shaped cut along one edge. Thanks to that cut, you'll tear off the tape in the same spot each time and know where to find the end.

The downside of the design is that you'll always have to use specific lengths of tape.

When do you ever really a long piece of clear tape like that though? I think its a pretty good idea.

Staples are better. Tape is inferior.

OH GOD memories of tape finding nightmares.

Yeah but isn't there going to be a random cut mark every time you go to tape something? Most modern tape rolls have a plastic thing at the beginning that helps you find it easily.

capn said...

am i the only one who feels a bit of nostalgia and perhaps apprehension at the idea of losing the ability of not knowing where the sticky tape begins? :(

Liu Xiaorong said...

nice idea but i think a better way of finding the end bit is to tape it a bit off the edge each time you rip it

Drea said...

Specific lengths of tape? That seems like a huge trade-off for wasting 15 seconds looking for the seam... But I guess some people only use a little tape at a time.
