Which part of the D810 is plastic?
The little red thing.
Put some ducktape over it to preserve some of the initial value of your
investment!
The 'Duck uses "duct tape", or "gaffer tape".

So, we have some manufacturer exploit a bunch of folks who have
misheard "duck" for "duct" and run with it. Good luck to them, few
businesses and no politicians have failed because of exploiting a
public misconception. Error becomes reality.
Check with 3M and see just how much "duck tape" the originators produce.

...and
3M also makes gaffers tape, which is a little different to duct tape.
Neither of them have feathers, webbed feet, and a bill.

Umm .... 'Duck tape' is the original name because it was made from
canvas-duck fabric. ('Duck' fabric can be either cotton or canvas.)
According to Wikipedia the first duck-tape was made by Revolite, a
division of Johnson & Johnson.
