    Somewhere here there is a thread that got into that. There were some pics of Roman style skirt things. You might want to look around for that.

    Basic rule: the higher up you go, the more careful you have to be to not have sticky stuff.

    I was thinking that the pleats could be a double layer of tape and hinge on a single thickness. Each pleat would be double the width with a reveal of one width. In the cruddy diagram below, I'd use double thickness for the lines and a single piece with the sticky on the inside fold would keep the pleats from splaying. You could taper the fell by not using an inside piece of tape and then line it with tape after tapering. Heck that almost does it. For a tartan effect alternate horizontal and vertical piece to achieve a desired pattern.

    On an interesting aside, I grew up in Wasilla, Alaska. It has the distinct honor of being the "Duct Tape Capital of the World" The Wal-Mart in Wasilla sells more duct tape than anyplace else in the world. O'Neille
