Here’s a twist on the traditional duct tape wallet: a magic wallet made out of duct tape! Magic wallets work like those old jacob’s ladder toys: the criss-cross starts on one side of the wallet, but when you open it up on the other side, the criss-cross switches to the other side. With duct tape and cardboard, you can make one for pennies. Could be a good gift for Father’s Day! [magic duct tape wallet by doctor what]
I also like this version of the wallet (by Instructables user qwerty987), which is a combination iPod case and magic wallet. I so need one of these!
Project Estimate:
- Duct Tape, on hand or about $3 a roll
- Cardboard, on hand
- Playing card (or something similar in size) for a template, on hand
- Scissors, on hand
Total: Free and up

@bunhead, you need to check the link for full instructions — it’s in brackets at the end of the 1st paragraph.

A couple of months ago I thought about the ‘magic’ wallet my dad made for me in leatherette, many, many moons ago.
I tried, unsuccessfully, to search for the instructions so I would like to thank you very much for posting this.

I tried making one, but the “magic” didn’t happen. If you showed yourself making it, that would be very helpful.
