General Homemade masks - TME

[Filthy]

mom sent me a bunch of fabric samples, she's a big quilter, so I've got some stuff for the kids to do. I sit down and bust out a bunch like an assembly line. They want to do a different one every time.

and I got my order of elastic in. It's black, but it'll do.

ordered it off of eBay ~ 12 days ago. shipped from LA. Post Office is fucked.
I've been waiting on Joann's to schedule my pickup since Tuesday. everybody's on the bandwagon.

my wife's friend imports stretchy-pants from India, she did a run of masks and sold 8k in a few hours.

A guy could just gut p-cord, would work fine.

amazon is not delivering anything until april 25. I think it will be faster for me if I buy one from the people selling them on social media.

my military surplus store is still open might have to MacGyver that into a mask.

just do like the hippies making bracelets and pull all/some of the elastic out of the middle. You'll be left with 1/8" elastic.

where are you at?
I can put one in an envelope and mail it to you. Won't be pretty, probably won't last very long because I suck at sewing.
but it might get you by for a little while if you've got nothing else.

elastic was gone here when my lady started making masks
she ended up buying some of the remaining shoelaces in town...says they work great

she is out of work, so reluctantly made like 70 masks for people...even though we aren't wearing them(full disclosure)
she sold them for 15 a pop(friend prices for co workers)...one of her 5 side jobs involves sewing fabric so she is fast and perfecto
they look designer and are super high quality...probably hundreds of washes each

elastic was just gone here...none to be found

surgical banding is still around, that's what my dad is using for his 3D printed masks.

 

[Atto]

They will have to drag my ass to jail before I wear one of those fucking things.

I think they are just trying to run the death total up higher for @Too swole to control's thread.

Fuck you were quick to post.
Lost my opportunity.

UPDATE:
dad has switched to printed molds for silicon masks. Says if it works he can send a mold to someone and they can buy some RTV and make as many as they need. Just a squish-mold, but looks plausible.

my sister's a nurse, she sent me a pattern so my masks fit over the cheap surgical kind. they look cooler and last longer.
see if you can get a washable mask with a pocket.

stay golden, ponyboy.

How about a small hole the size of a cigarette just in case you want to catch a smoke?

i have one with a smallish-hole for a hobo dick.

it's our "@Bones Nose" model....might work if you don't mind old stogies that are short but not too big around.

Make a hole with a plug, we used to smoke in our gas masks through the canteen port.

when we'd do 'Exercises' I was usually on the "Wolf Pack" because of my prior training and clearance. I was doing some incursion planning with a salty Marine, and he made a joke about "Gatorade Eye Wash"...guys like to put Gatorade in their canteens, but you're supposed to use your canteen water as an emergency eye wash. Most people forget about that rule. So if he found a guy with a sports drink in his canteen, he'd hand the guy a card that said "your mask leaked, perform an emergency eye wash"

OMFG, I had so much fun with that bit. It never got old. The smart ones would just shrug and be like "nope" and then you tell them they're dead and make their friends haul the body to away and do that whole dance. But sometimes you'd get someone new enough or dumb enough to try...pure comedy gold.

Here's what you do




Go into your wallet and pull out that old, dusty, dried up, expired condom you have got in there.



Now take that and throw it in the fucking trash .


Why throw it away you ask . Because I know a guy of your stature is rocking a mini and use XX SMALL rubbers . We don't need that tiny shit brah


Go buy the MAGNUM XXXL condoms .


Now open the package




Take out the condom









AND PUT IT OVER YOUR THICK FUCKING SKULL ALL THE WAY TO THE NECK

it will not only keep away any viruses but it will also kill you in about 5 minutes time so you won't have to worry about covid anymore



Win/Win as far as I am concerned




Please let me know if the instructions are unclear



Thanks
