- In this video I will show you how to make your own steampunk goggles that are inexpensive, yet will stand out in the sea of brass painted welding goggles. They are very easy to customize and make your own.

If you have made my top hat, you will already have most of what you need to complete this project. I think you will find that the craft foam is surprisingly durable when it is finished, and is easy to work with using common household tools.
***UPDATE** You don't need to use liquid latex at all if you don't want to . Regular white glue works as well to stiffen up the middle section.
Go for it!

I bought the pattern and my glasses turned out awesome! Thanks! A few things I did to make it easier:
To make the head screws instead of cutting them I applied heat to the end of a flat blade screwdriver and touched it to the screw heads. This made an instant mark and looks perfect.
I used "Plasti-Dip" spray to rubberize my entire goggle. Awesome product and if you get black, you do not have to paint! Just paint and rub and you're done!
Hi Chris, just thought I'd let you know that I have had great success using your pattern with leather offcuts instead of foam 😄😄😄
I like how you throw everything down without a care lol
Ah heck yeah this is awesome! New subscriber right here! Totally gonna make a pink pair! :)
Aww yeah!
Same with subscriber here, 3pic :D
(make a dragon skin gloves maybe? :D)
My daughter and I bought your combo pack of patterns and started making the goggles. What fun! We had a bit of trouble with the glue on the skinny edges, ended up using super glue for those, but otherwise it's coming along great! Will post pics when completed. Your videos are fun and entertaining and give great info. Well done!
I don't personally care for the steampunk aesthetic but your stuff is STILL rad.
I made this along with the top hat to wear to a carnaval party at my school and everyone loved it! Unfortunately the pattern wasn't available where I live so I had to try it by heart... I also found some reaaaally big round blue sunglasses and used them for the goggles! They turned out really pretty!
Thats cool.
Here's a response to Iris, First, I can't post a reply to your comment unless you change your google plus settings. Go to Google plus settings, open Google account settings, Where it says "who can click on your public posts" change it to "anyone" That would be awesome! The Diameter of the lens I used is 48mm. Cheers.
hi there Lost Wax, I TOTALLY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, and I was wondering, can you do a Star Lord's mask tutorial, that yould be awesome, thanks
Hi, would you be so kind to tell me the brand of latex and adhesive you are using.
Thank you, you are awesome
hey Lost Wax, would it be possible to change the lens colours? like to a yellow?
+#6389 are u thinking ticci toby or am i confusing the crap out of u?
OceanMist 999 Nah, i'm thinking of a colour I needed X3
Here's a reply to Brume Novembre. First, I can't post a reply to your comment unless you change your google plus settings. Go to Google plus settings, open Google account settings, Where it says "who can click on your public posts" change it to "anyone" That would be awesome! O.K., I added the liquid latex to make the nosepiece stronger, however, you could also use white glue to make it stronger, and then you don't need the liquid latex.
where could I buy a similar one low priced before Halloween I love the tubeing on the side btw
This is perfect timing for me considering I like steampunk stuff
Oh bless you for this, watching it go together is SO helpful as prep for making these.
You're welcome! And just so you know, the liquid latex is really not necessary, I just use regular acrylic paints now:)
Can I just say that you and your videos are incredibly informative and charming! Keep up the good work. I love all that you've done!
I just want to thank you for this tutorial. It was really helpful when I made mine out of leather.
I'm amazed by your level of creativity and your painting techniques. Stay awesome!
Your voice is so calming for some reason
Hope I didn't put you to sleep with my calming voice:)
LIKE iff he should o more Steampunk Tutorials!
Maybe clothes or something like that!
I flippin LOVE your tutorials. Not only are they well made so that even I can make them, they are hysterical to boot. I dig your sense of humor. Thanks for the awesomeness.
Cheryl Land Thanks for the encouraging comment. Makes my day:)
Awesome!
Your Steampunk glasses are better than sliced bread, toilett paper and definitely better than heavy welding glasses!
Watching your video on Steampunk Goggles solved a number of my "creative" problems! Brilliant! I like to make things, too:-) But I'm overseas, so I can't always get the stuff needed for some projects. Fun Foam! Who would have thought...
Thanks for sharing and offering your pattern (I sent you an email about paying via PayPal)
Thanks again!!!
Hi Patricia, I am honoured that I got to help solve some creative problems! I sent you a reply to your email, if you didn't get it, let me know:) Cheers.
I made these goggles at home they look just like real goggles thanks for making this video you're awesome person
I've seen a few of your videos now and I'm dying to try them out with my nieces. You are wonderfully creative. Thank you for sharing it with the world! I'll let you know how our projects turn out.
i finally found a video that actually has easy items and following steps! thank you so much
You're welcome!
Rememer your Steampunk Top Hat Tutorial? I was actually thinking about making a pair of goggles and a book for a steampunk-loving friend with that 'patched up metal' theme (will start as soon as I get some lenses for the goggles), but this is quite awesome too. Thanks for sharing!
This is awesome! I've been looking for diy goggles to make a steamy Fallout cosplay. Makes for a subtle flare. Might pin them to my wig.
also to cut the lenses, you could ge tthe rough shap and then finish it off via sanding, weather with a belt sander or by hand
You are awesome! I'm trying to make an cool end of the world steampunk video and with your tips.
Indie Charted Sweet, I'd love to see it when you're done.
I can't believe how fricking amazing this is. I might just do the top hat and goggles as a low-key halloween costume. We'll just see, won't we..
this is still my fav tutorial of yours! i discovered your channel from this video a long time ago and i actually made my own goggles a few months ago! i was so proud! 🙄
Thanks for sticking around!!
no problem! thanks for making cool stuff! 🤘
I'm thinking of making the top hat, and then making this as the band around it, kind of like the goggles in the picture you have of the top hat.
Thanks so much! I needed this for a short film :D
Amazing tutorial, as always. Funny, you look just like a really talented stock photographer named Konrad Bak. I did a double-take. Your tutorials are really inspirational.
Hehe, yeah, I guess I kinda do. I could be his stunt double!
I feel like this would be extremely useful for my Leo Valdez Halloween costume!!
I've watched this like 4 times today and I'm not even sorry
This was a fun way to make goggles! I took a few liberties with the design. Mostly I just used hot glue instead of all the other adhesives. Also I used some paper fasteners instead of little hole punched circles. Instead of using liquid latex I used Elmer's glue because I did not want to wear them and have to worry about people's allergies.
At 5:50 in the lenses of the goggles, you can see all of your filming stuff. This is not an insult though. I love your videos!
You have got my respect, sir. And my subscription.
Thank you kindly.
Hey everyone a quick helpful tip! When making a notch for the screws at 2:16, you don't really need to a really sharp blade simply use a solider tip and draw a line and that's it ! it will melt a perfect thin line with perfection :)
You are stupid amazing. Those came out nicely.
Reply to Maria- Yes that link is my pattern.- Also I think you need to change your settings because I am not able to reply to your comment:)
Excellent.. i was looking for a bit of outside inspiration for my valentines gift this year. I might adapt them a bit but thanks, fantastic work.
OMG they are sooo awesome! And thy look lie real metal!!!
Hole punch idea....genious!! Please post some more videos of cool steampunk items! Steampunk belt, jewelry, mech arm, cool cuffs, gloves, wall art, table pieces, etc... thnx!!! I never fully attempted a steampunk themed item because i felt i didnt have the necessary materials (brass/copper/other shiny metal pieces, wires, mesh....and a lot of tutorials require special glue/paint/gloss/glaze that i wouldnt even know where to buy). Your vids are simple and use basic items yet turn out amazing! Eagerly awaiting more vids =D
Oh god I've only seen two of your videos, but I've noiticed 3 things. 1 they are useful, 2 they are awesome, 3 you are hillarious.
Thank you for making this!
(sorry if I mispelled anything, english isn't my first language)
Thanks!! I guess that's kind of my goal- show people stuff they want to see, and try to keep it from being boring:)
This is great project, because you can use pattern from these goggles to make some crazy post-apocalyptic masks or goggles!
I've recently became addicted to your videos.
Thank you! :3
+Facetious Femme No worries!
Awesome, thank you very much, just what I need, I suscribe.
I want to make my granddaughter's Halloween costume steampunk eeek am incredibly nervous....... this is so helpful a huge THANK YOU mwah
I like the overall design, but the paint could be a bit more shiny. Maybe add some copper or shiny brass paint to some of the details like the little pipes to make them pop. it would make it look a lot nicer.
Another great tutorial - excellent value! I'll add this to my mountain of partially-completed projects, which is 'topped' by two of your hats. Very best wishes to you and your family.
Thank you! Much appreciated:)
Your art looks awesome and simple to make. Very Inspiring, thanks for taking the time to share your craft.
Love your technique allot lighter than welding goggles to.
Just don't do any actual welding with them on :)
Incredible! *-*
Greetings from Steampunk Andalucia, in Spain
I wish I had a pair of round black broken sunglasses for the glass in the middle cause I haven't got. :/
Apparently it works to use a plastic pop bottle. THough then Your lenses will be clear or green:)
+Lost Wax nope I found a brownish/gold plastic bottle from a ice team Switzerland mark and it is a little bit transparent so that will be perfect lets so it !
So I just thought of using JB Weld liquid instead of 2 part epoxy. Same idea: 2 part adhesive that sets up fairly quickly, but it already comes in metallic colors because it's steel reinforced liquid welding bonding agent. Apply after painting for a contrast rivet!
Amazing design, Lost Wax! The goggles are just what I've been looking for. But, can you include in your future videos that we have to pay for the PDF files? Just a bit disappointed, cause I'm broke. Thanks, though!!
thank you! This is so helpful for a cosplay I'm working on !
This was super informative, easy to follow, and entertaining! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching and commenting!!
Olá Chris achei muito legal o tutorial de como fazer esse óculos e fiz um pra mim, parabéns você tem um seguidor brasileiro.
I have real authentic ones I got from my uncle's old workshop I know surprisingly wear them whenever I'm doing an experiment
steampunk!!!! love your videos. thanks for putting them online
That is cool, I plan to give this a try for my cosplay later in the year!
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH I really needed this video!!!
No worries!
You're awesome,Thank you,now I know what to wear at Comic Con 2014 Romania!Thank You!
i made these goggles! they are awesome!
+macabre_laughter I have had someone use plastic from a pop bottle, said it worked well.
I love the suspenseful music
Thank you for the great videos and patterns! As a blogger and Etsy artisan, I love being able to support fellow makers. We're about to have some very cool photo props thanks to your work. =)
Sweet!!!
I like to make things too ......you are awesome!!!!
Dude, this is so cool
It looks so real!!! You are amazing!!!
Love steampunk googles! Thanks!
hmm, i like the idea of using liquid latex, though ill have to try this, but the only thing id change is dry brushing the copper color on instead of using my finger.
Hi your videos are awesome and very helpful, greeting from Costa Rica! And thanks
Really awesome goggles, I'm making a pair of these
man your tutorials are awesome!
Dude these are amazing
I dont' wear a steampunk goggle, but this goggle is cool, and easy to make this.
Hello, I will like to say this is such an amazing tutorial and thank you for sharing it with us! I will be using this to make my Horuss cosplay. Thanks once again! :)
+Prince Of Rage You're welcome!
That's are really nice googles!!!
Saturday project okay I'm ready let's go
Im one of thos people who can't pay for things by themselves so Im going to have to make my own template, but this SO FREAKING AMAZING OH MY GOD
In our school we have to dress as a story character and I'm dressing up as one of my own characters, who has goggles xD This really helped Thanks!
It's amazing how creative you are ! Thank you for sharing your experience and ideas.
I'd share it with some friends, and all of them think your work is really great.
Perhaps one day I'll send some creations made with your patterns !
( A french fan so sorry for my english ;) )
0:35 2 part epoxy yarn... the most important thing!
I love those goggles, you are amazing at what you do lost wax. But I do have a question, what would say to someone who has never created anything like the goggles or the top hat...or well anything steampunk before like me and really want to but worried that the projects will turn out completely wrong in the end? I'm sorry for the run on and blabbering question, but thank you for your time.
Lizzy Sanders I say, go for it! I do lots of projects that turn out to be complete failures, but I always learn something from trying them. The only way to get good at something is to start doing it:) If I were you I would probably start with the top hat, and expect to make 2 of them. The first one to make all your mistakes on, and the second to look awesome!
Lost Wax true I'll do that, thank you so much for your advice. When I do start I'll tell you how it turns out. 😊
I HAVE to show you my hat and goggles! How do I send you a pic?
Awesome tutorial. I encourage everyone to download the pattern. SOOOOOOO easy!
I did everything here, except the headband bit, the screws, and some other things. The reason why, was because I made the "Head goggles" thing from Jak and Daxter.
It was simple, first I got the goggle part, got my leather pilot cap (that was already made) and then carefully hot glued them to the cap!
I used a silver poxy/paint stain, instead of black and then applied to the aluminum portions instead of black/brass. ALUMINUM!?!!?
Here is how I managed to make my google bit aluminum, wait it's metal? HOW!
Since I finished the goggle bit, I told myself: I don't want this weak thing to be on this! So I improvised. I made a cast/mold with the goggles, I then heated up aluminum into a special cup, and poured it into the mold. I gave it an hour, and cracked it open.
After cutting off the aluminum bar connected to the goggles, sanding it down to give it smoother corners, and polishing it, I finished it finally!
This took weeks to get as far that I am, because of resources, money, the tools, and time.
Now the hard part, finding glasses that fit it 0.o
Maybe I'll have to make the glass part too ;-;
I am almost done, I need to get the glass lens part finished, so then I can put the goggles onto the leather cap. And since it is constructed of aluminum the goggles weigh very little.
Was it hell having to go through the hassle of heating and pouring?!
Suisse Cruz Yes. Worth it.
Could wire be added to the nosepiece to make it stiffer? Maybe by sandwiching it between the foam and the yarn. This is a great steampunk project. I didn't know something this cool could be made from foam!
Yeah, you probably could add wire or a thin metal strip. Also I have been told that using white glue works as well.
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial!
Just wish the pattern was free lol
This channel is hilarious I don't even know
Excellent !
Bonne idée 👍
Superbe travail manuelle 👍
Just made these thanks
Oh no... I forgot to leave enough room for a mustache.
Everything is ruined.
Always watch the entire video first, then you wont make stupid mistakes like that again ;)
Made these, but used brass paper push clips to fasten the straps and on the nose piece.
Hey, good idea! How did you use the paperclips on the nosepiece? Was it sandwiched between the foam?
Geniales! Muchas gracias x compartir tu creatividad!
You are amazing!!!!
woooow that's amazing!!!! thx for share
Idk why but u remind me some how of the new after in fantastic four that plays the stretchy man
Super merci
For Halloween this year I was thinking of doing a cosplay for a character with these kind of goggles. The problem was, all the really good ones were extremely expensive to buy online. So I thank you for making this so I don't have to spend 50 bucks on goggles.
No worries. It's more fun to make them yourself anyways...
Smart idea cool invention but did you cut the wires off of your weed cutter
these rock!!! i love them thank you soo much you rock man!!!
soooo easy thank you
