Well, I was once told that a lathe is the only tool that can reproduce itself, but duck tape and a pocket knife are handier I suppose.
My dad told me that a man ought to have two things: a pocket knife and a watch. (I guess that's so you know what time that you cut yourself)

I've always read that the plow was the greatest tool ever made--turned civilization from roamers to planters. I always keep a couple rolls of duct tape around, and use it alot, but must agree with the last lines of the original post that it dries out and loses its stickiness, and then is a real pain to remove.

Here is a good example of a creative use for duct tape, and some major stupidity as well. That would also be a good idea for another thread, "What are some creative uses you have for duct tape?" I used to have a neighbor with a prostetic leg and he used duct tape to hold one of the joints togather on his leg while waiting on his new one to finish being made.
