I'm looking for "0" scale 'caution tape' yellow and black striped
I need a piece 1 and 1/2 inches wide and 10 ft long
Is this commercially available?
Do you know of a source?

YES, exactly like that.
Bill...I drew that tape using a simple CAD program, but depending on how much you actually need of it, I do believe you could make your own tape from strips of paper and yellow and black magic markers making it in this pattern I drew or one you prefer.
Any white paper cut in strips as wide as you want, a some care using the markers should blend in very well.
OR...in a pinch I guess I could draw a bunch for you to print and cut out.

Here's more Bill.......just print out as many as you need...enjoy!

Well, I don't have any artwork to offer, but here is a trick:
Make a large image consisting of long vertical black stripes on a yellow background. Print (or draw) it on both sides of a piece of paper. Then just cut out strips diagonally across the pattern. That way you get the desired pattern on both sides of the tape. Cutting with a ruler and an Xacto Knife tends to give better results than scissors for this kind of thing.
Pete and Bob thank you. I've revised my query.
Bill, it's confusing unless you also state if those are intended to be Scale dimensions.
At 1 1/2" x 10 ft long in actual size it is a far cry from O scale unless your asking for 1/32" x 2 1/2" which is what it scales out to be in 1/4" O Scale.
Trying to help you.

Bill, would a real piece of caution tape be of any use to you? You could just cut it to the dimensions you want and add black lines to it. I have some laying around somewhere that I could send you. I think it would look more realistic than the paper.
that would be great, thank you. I'll email you.
