When pressed against a sufficiently-pliant surface, the retractable tines make a pleasing hole pattern, the same sort of pattern one will see over many industrial or toy speakers, where the speaker cover is integrated into the body of the larger item, such as the speaker holes for emergency communications on an elevator control pad.

I bought the tool secondhand somewhere in #Edmonton, #Alberta sometime shortly after the beginning of the #covid19 #pandemic, as one of many quasi-random #tools and #materials I would end up testing and using to create my own masks that would be safe for me to wear for long periods and provide the best degree of homemade #PPE protection I could manage whilst also avoiding problems with #allergies (such as metal on nose-fittings). 3/x #TrialAndError #testing #experimental #experimentation #safety #health #CovidIsNotOver
