I MADE ONE PAIR, BUT I NEED TO LEARN TO CUT STRAIT. I DID HAVE AN IDEAL. YOU COULD USE THICKER CARDBOARD. WEBER GAS BARBEQUE GRILLS COME PACKED WITH 1, 2, & 3" THICK CARDBOARD. MY LOCAL HARDWARE STORE ASSEMBLES AND DILIVERIES THIER GRILLS; ALSO, THEY COMPACK ALL THIER CARDBOARD WASTE. I HAD TO ASKS THEM TO SAVE ME SOME. THE BEST TIME TO ASK WOULD BE A WEEK BEFORE ANY SUMMER HOLIDAYS.

This is one of the best Instructables I've seen yet and I've seen quite a few. on mine on the top layer I had padding on it before I duct taped it and it's really comfy. I did the same on the strap above, it feels great and I love wearing them around my house. I also agree with everyone else, nice drawing, the Exacto looks real.
