There are lots of tutorials out there but these two (which use similar methods) are the easiest and fastest I’ve seen. Both are washable/reusable. Both can accommodate a filter if you want additional filtration on top of the resulting 12 layers (I’d cut a piece of a standard HEPA filter vacuum bag for a filter). No scissors or sewing needed, just a bandanna/scarf and 2 rubber bands/hair elastics.

Method 1:

DIY Bandana Face Mask

Method 2:

🔴EASY STEPS/ DIY FACE MASK in 40 seconds / No Sewing Machine / No manual Sewing

Note: HEPA filters are OSHA certified to filter out 99.97% of airborne particulate matter... the coveted N95 medical grade mask typically filters out only 95% of particles. If you decide to cut up a home maintenance filter to use as a filter in your face mask, make sure that it is made of 100% polypropylene (plastic), which is used in N95 masks. Vacuum cleaner bags should be OK, but furnace filters and other filters may be made of borosilicate (paper reinforced with fiber glass) or other materials that are potentially harmful to breath through. Also consider inserting a wire (e.g., pipe cleaner, sturdy twist tie) at the top of the mask so that you can form fit it to your face/nose.

Neverr knew I’d want to own a cotton candy machine or have a desperate craving for some Werther’s Original caramel cotton candy… I blame you.

All these moved posts about coronavirus were just dumped into OT, not even the Coronavirus thread

That’s because this thread was created specifically as a repository for off-topic post replies moved from elsewhere. I thought that would have been clear from the title, but if you have any suggestions for editing the title, or if you would like to take the responsibility of finding an appropriate home for every off-topic item in every other category, I’m all ears.

I should start a pool. I’d give amazing odds against those direct deposits hitting by April 9th. Like 50 to 1 at least.

The IRS anticipates distributing $1,200 stimulus checks via direct deposit (to those with bank accounts already on file) between April 9th - 14th. Paper checks start going out April 24th but could take up to 5 months. The portal to submit bank info for direct deposit is not expected to launch for at least a month.
