thingiverse

This system takes strain off ears of someone wearing a mask. A hoop in middle is designed to distribute tension force from mask along near top of head to back of head. Additionally, the hoop allows one to put ponytail through it so that ear saver will not slip down head. Four versions are available in folder: 4.5in, 5.5in, 6.5in, and 7.5in. System has been tested in Grand Rapids, Chicago, and North Carolina.
