Johnson and Johnson began manufacturing duct tape in the early 1940s. Originally, its main use was for military purposes, such as waterproofing ammunition cases. Over the years, the general public has used duct tape for countless purposes due to its strength and affordable price. A craft that you can make with duct tape and a few other basic items is a toy gun. Although children usually ask for all sorts of expensive toys, sometimes the most fun toys can be the ones that you make yourself.
