I've taken some quick pictures of what it looks like after it's removed: http://imgur.com/a/JsHFV

That piece can be unscrewed (it's threaded) with a pair of pliers, which I see you already have.

I received mine a few weeks ago and have had some time during the holiday to get fully acquainted with it. Overall I'm satisfied with these headphones, however I noticed some flaws that should be pointed out:   1. The JMoney pads are extremely firm and made of lower quality, rougher leather...

To the owners of the LCD-2: How large is the diameter of the leather pads in inches? Would anyone care to measure them with a ruler or caliper? I know the driver is approximately 2.9" large, but what about the overall size of each side?   Thanks

These instructional videos about how to create plush toys and stuffed dolls should give you an idea about how to create your own earpads. The basic principle is the same, you're just working with different prestitched patterns and material (soft leather). This video about making footballs is...

It wouldn't be too hard to sew an elastic band of some sort, like a waist band used in boxer shorts or briefs but with lower elasticity and higher tensile strength, to the edges of the earpad. Denon have used a similar technique on their D2000/D5000 headphones.
