Reply To: DIY face masks for OTTer-pups?

I really needed to read this twice because in a first glance over it my brain automatically tried to connect the text, masks and covid for some reason. My fault.

So custom mask for the hobby-child. A good idea in theory but the biggest problem is: the smaller they are the faster they grow. Depending on how long it would take to make such a custom mask the higher the risk of it not fitting any more. Also these “one offs” would be really expensive and with most things expensive they probably would be used much longer then they are actually well fitted. And that negates the custom made thing in the first place. (I hope my ramblings are readable)

In theory the idea is great but not very feasible for children. I myself would keep my child from the “bad stuff” (cutting resin, using pigments and hot wire cutters) so long until I can be sure she understands why protection is needed and how to wear masks and gloves properly.
