The Box of Duct Tape is a sealed box holding twelve rolls of Duct Tape. It is a bulk pack, and its value lies in the rolls inside.
Unpack Box opens it into twelve loose Duct Tape rolls. A double click on the box does the same job. The rolls then go into the many repair and crafting recipes that call for tape.
The box is a rare find, mostly in army storage and pawn shops. Pack Items in Box can also make one from twelve loose rolls, which keeps a stockpile compact. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Unpack Box is the only step the box takes part in. It needs no tools, no skill and no station. The twelve rolls are ordinary Duct Tape, ready for any recipe that takes it.
Packing works the other way. Pack Items in Box takes twelve Duct Tape and returns one box. That turns a pile of loose rolls into a single item on a storage shelf.
The Box of Adhesive Tape works the same way with twelve rolls of Adhesive Tape. The duct tape box is the heavier of the two, at 5 weight against 3.
