FFS - give me your address, I'll send you 30cm of Sellotape for xmas

is the correct answer ...
You plagurist
Try the shops that will split battery packs mentioned in a thread a few days ago, sure they'll sell tape by the centimeter.
Just ask them for cell-o-tape.
I'm not sure they even make sellotape in 30cm wide rolls. What length do you need?
The battery thread is over there =====>
If its 30cm wide, one cm would do
more would just be excessive
They do! In fact they make it several feet wide, then slice it down. Ask them nicely and they'll make almost any width you want.
Somewhere I've still got a roll of 9" Sellotape (this would be more use if it was masking tape adhesive and less sticky). I certainly have a 2' diameter roll of 3" that was 2' diameter when I acquired it years ago and still doesn't look any smaller, despite getting used for everything from bundling tape to rat traps.
You could always do it the original way and make your own. Cut strip of clingfilm / sandwich bag / binbag / polythene etc, and brush on choice of adhesive. Cue a big mess and lot of wasted time.

If you've got a pic of it, ideally next to a ruler, it could be good for the wiki tape article.

Have you tried it as a hamster wrapper ?
But I don't need a whole centimeter, that would be wasteful
