Kraft Tape

[Greg Newell]

Carl,
    Thanks for the only reply so far. I need it for traveling paper. I can't seem to find it locally so i can't buy just a roll or two. Minimum order from Rand office products is 8 rolls. A bit much! What do you or others use for traveling paper?

Since I need 2 inch I sliced it with a razor blade and pulled it thru a fixture and rolled it up on a tin can attached to a low speed motor.  "Shows how carried away I get"  I put this tape on the front of these bin boxes an label them.  If I need to change the boxes I just put another piece of tape over the old one.  This tape is opaque and then I can relabel.
