DIY Duct Tape & Bubble Wrap Camera Case
Photo via BackpackingLight.com
Sam Haraldson from Backpacking Light Magazine came up with the idea of making his own camera case from bubble wrap and duct tap before he tackled the Pacific Northwest Trail back in the summer of 2006. He thought it was a dud but decided to take it anyway, and to his surprise it lasted all 1,200 miles of the PNT. Cheap, lightweight, durable and one more example of why duct tape rocks–visit BackpackingLight.com and learn how to make your own.
