Utility knife
Awl or other pointed tool
Hot glue gun
Toothpicks
Metallic silver paint (amzn.to/2D7mnMq)
Gold Metallic paint (amzn.to/2EFEn5c)

I was just watching random vids on RUclips and got caught up watching Star Trek clips. I saw this video (two thumbs up) and remembered about a year ago I found some old style banana clips and bought them with the intention of making a visor. I whipped one together in about 2 hours. I should’ve made a video...idiot. Actually I didn’t have the right tools namely an exacto-knife so my frame didn’t turn out perfectly. Anyway, Ill make one I’m proud of tomorrow and film it. Thanks for inspiring me to finally make my own!
