Duct Tape Hack: Make a Clothesline

You can also substitute duct tape for a makeshift clothesline if you’re in a pinch. Stick several pieces together with the sticky side facing in. Then, run the tape between clothesline poles, two trees, or any other objects you have around.

The tape is strong enough to support bulky items and can act as a clothesline when you’re in a jam.
