Part 6: Duct Tape the Thrusting Tip Into Position:

Pull two 18 inch or so sections of red duct tape and cover your thrusting tip with them in a cross configuration. Smooth down the tape as much as you can. The vinyl sleeve must be completely covered. Use a third piece if you must.
Then pull two 1 foot sections of any color duct tape and wrap them around the neck of the thrusting tip/pipe junction just as you did the strapping tape. Use the razor blade/utility knife to trim off any tape ends which protrude below this tape. If your cord that ties the pipes together is below this, use a third piece of tape wrapped laterally around the pipe to cover this up. You are now done with the thrusting tip!
