Simplification…
New and improved..

I first removed the eyes…

Then removed the black fur and cloth…

Here, the bottom portion of the old foam has been removed. I want to redo the wiring, as well. Still deciding how I want to do that…

The original elastic strapping that came on the hockey mask was always difficult to keep straight and didn’t hold things very secure. So, I’m switching over to a better solution. I found a youth size black baseball cap at Hobby Lobby that has an adjustable velcro closure on the back. I cut off the bill…


Then, pop riveted the mask to the hat…

To redo the wiring, I think I want to run it on the outside of the mask…

I extended the wires, and added in an on/off switch…

The mask had a small opening that was perfect to run the wires through. I also cut off the excess mask material at the top…
