G.1- ASSEMBLY OF THE MASK - FIRST PHASE
G.1- ASSEMBLY OF THE MASK - FIRST PHASE
a. The Pillow, the Structure and the Screen are arranged in an overlapping manner, in the order described.
The holes of the Screen and of the Structure are completely mating, while the holes of the Pillow, which are only eight, mate in those marked with the letters B2, A2, A1 and B1, as well as in those marked with the letters B3, A3, A4 and B4.
The assembly work is carried out by operating from the outside of the mask, and consists of a sort of seam: the needle is represented by the ends of the strings which previously, as we said, have been adequately treated.
b. Work begins on the upper central part of the mask by inserting the two ends of one of the strings in correspondence with the holes that are indicated on the Master Forms with the letters A1 and A2
c. The two ends of the string are inserted from top to bottom, bearing in mind that in the four central holes, below the Screen layer and the Structure layer, there is also the Pillow layer to be assembled.
d. The stitching is done as in hand stitching, and one proceeds with one of the ends, clockwise, from the hole A1 to the hole F1, and with the other end, anticlockwise, from the hole A2 to the hole F2.
e. In this way, the assembly of half of the mask is finished: it only needs an adjustment.
f. If the sewing work has been done correctly, the two ends are lying above the screen layer, after having come out of the holes F1 and F2, respectively.
g. These garments must be grasped and pulled both, in opposite directions, outwards, with a little energy but slowly.
h. This operation produces, on the mask being packaged, first a groove and then a folding of the angles inwards, until the join of holes C1 and C2, respectively, with the holes D1 and D2: for the identification of the holes, they can consult the Master Forms, in which the positions of the single holes indicated on the Forms of work are marked.
Regarding the effects that are created in pulling the strings, it is appropriate to accompany and help these effects with your hands, especially the folding of the corners inwards.
