I was on my way to a hike about 20+miles from home and while driving,heard a pop.I got out and looked to find out a starp that holds my fuel tank on broke.I used the duct tape on my RipSpool and managed to repair the strap long enough to get me home.If my gas tank would dropped down,no way I could of made it home, and the tow bill would of been outrageous.People are gonna hate, but this product for me is legit and I now own 2 RipSpools.I also added some small hooks,sinkers,and safety pens to the compartment the needle goes in and it works great.Thanks James for another cool video.

I did the same for a lot less. Found a spool of heavy duty black thread that fits inside an old 35mm film canister, four straight needles down the middle and two curved needles around the inside under the lid.

This wouldn't be a bad start to a repair kit, but I'd suggest pairing with the SK-318 sewing kit from Townsends (or something similar) and add a few things like some beeswax, artificial sinew, etc. One of those speed stitcher awls has saved a backpack or two for me, as well.

Excellent video brother! I always carry a sewing kit in my EDC bag and when I go camping. Never know when that's going to come in handy. Duct tape or Gorilla tape, I prefer Gorilla tape, and that's what saved your boots on our camping trip, also I must have. That's a great little piece of kit. Thanks for the review.

I have to disagree some of us came from the bottom. Some of us when we grew up in the mountains around here learn how to repair items first versus just buying something new. of course people that spend $30 on duct tape, braided fishing line, and a needle haven't been raised like me to repair gear and get the most for your money. they want the best "new" toy out there. this item can be replicated with a pill bottle, a needle, and some line. I did it years ago before I heard of a company called exotac.
