File comment: Step 7: Hold the 646 slits while you are inflating the 160 (together in the same hand). The 160 may curl inside the 646 as you are inflating; just give it a tug and apply pressure to the 160 to force air back into the 646 while you inflate. Inflate the 160 to your desired banana length, tie and cut off remaining. Add artwork and here is your banana.

Dewey taught this at twist & Shout!!!!

I was not looking at the time, just saw end results. 160 and 646. I done it by blowing up 160 first to size pushing air to the very end and tieing it off tight. Cut slits in 646, I like to do 3rds thicker peel.

Thread end of 160 through 646 and slide the "skin" on like a Durex. tie off 646& 160 together and trim with scissors.

all else fails e-mail Ralph!!

I was told he did it a bit differently than I did Mark. If he does it like this, then I apoligize. I think there are many ways people do it to accomplish the same thing.

I think the bannana has been around for a while now and was at TMJ a few years back.
