That looks like a little mini hacksaw in the 6th frame.

Wonder how much NASA spends for a mini hacksaw cobbled together with duct tape?

Very impressive, indeed!

And then the hacksaw, cobbled together with duct tape. My first thought: "doesn't duct tape outgas like a sonofabith in a vacuum?," but that's just me.

I'm guessing it cost more than $4.99.

Nah, it's fine. My Hoover is held together with duct tape, no problems.

Nature abhors a vacuum. Me too. Also, a steam iron.

I want to go into space now. Anyone want to lend me an enormous amount of money so I can buy my own shuttlecraft?

No money to lend, but perhaps this can help.

Hm, would the all-weather Duct Tape hold up to reentry conditions?

If you look up the spec for the "Scotch® Professional HVAC Duct Tape" it specifically states: "Does not outgas like a sonofabitch in a vacuum."

I stand corrected. Apologies for all.
