How can you make a face mask yourself, without a sewing machine? In this guide I will show you a face mask for the mouth and nose that you can make without having to go shopping. You have all the necessary materials at home anyway.
My breathing mask in the style of a surgical mask does not require any sewing.
If you currently want to wear a protective mask due to the corona crisis, you will find that these masks are hardly available and also extremely expensive. But not everyone has a sewing machine at home or knows how to use it. Hardly anyone will have the material needed for a sewn face mask at home. Since we should stay at home at the moment because of the Covid-19 danger, I thought about how you can easily make a DIY surgical mask yourself from an old T-shirt, a tea towel and a towel. The mask is washable at 60 degrees Celsius and therefore reusable.
In the media I have heard in the past few days that breathing masks like the one presented here do not offer the mask wearer reliable protection against the corona virus, but it is better than nothing. If someone is already ill (e.g. undetected) with Corona, such a mask may help to avoid infecting other people. At least coarse aerosols can be stopped or at least reduced by such masks. FFP2 and FFP3 masks, on the other hand, are supposed to be relatively safe, but you can't easily make them at home.
Please note the following:
I am not an expert, neither in the medical field nor in the manufacture of respiratory masks. I don't take any liability. Please keep the hygiene rules, e.g. frequent hand washing and keeping a distance. Stay at home whenever possible.
I hope my tutorial on how to make a DIY face mask helped you.
Stay alive and well, even in these difficult times.
