Things You'll Need:
- Bicycle inner tube
- Sharp knife
- Cutting board
-
Step 1
Find yourself a bicycle inner tube, preferably a used or non-functioning one. You may find one in your garage or check out the local garbage dump or thrift store.
-
Step 2
Cut the valve stem off by making two straight cuts on either side of the stem. This will leave you with one lone straight rubber tube.
-
Step 3
Place the tube on a cutting board and using a very sharp knife cut off pieces to the width you require your rubber bands to be. You can play around here and make different sizes of rubber bands.
-
Step 4
Tie the ends of your rubber band together and clip off the excess at the ends.
-
Step 5
Use a ham slicer. Alternatively, you can employ an electric ham slicer and feed in the required thickness each time instead of using a knife.
