Purely out of morbid curiosity, has anybody ever considered making Tyvek
tape? The stuff is damned near impossible to tear and difficult even to
stretch enough to lose data.
That is actually a very good idea. I shall dig out some tyvek samples and
cut some inch-wide strips for initial tests. If this is OK, I shall
contact the manufacturers. I'll post results here, but can't make any
promises as to timescale.
FWIW I kept some tyvek samples (from an office supplies catalogue) for use
as gasket paper on my car. Works a treat on things like carburettors, gear
levers, etc. Don't fancy trying it on cylinder heads, though...
