Thanks! I'm actually a molecular biologist. Having written up several manuscripts as well as protocols, I kind of have experience writing how-to's. I put this one together mainly as a mental excise on a slow day at work. I figured that I would have gotten flooded with "How did you make it?" questions anyways.

I agree. At least they could make it out of "pleather" or something for the cheaper models. I read in an old post that Grado used to allow anyone to buy the "headband assembly" with the leather headband for around $40. I guess they must have got flooded with requests that they now refuse to allow the purchase.
Knowing about this restriction ahead of time, I did manage to "trick" them into letting me buy one so I can install it on an SR-60 I used to own a while ago.
I wasn't comfortable tricking them again when I got my MS-1, so I decided to make one myself.

You're either a natural DIY instructor or you spent a lot of time putting this tutorial together. Dunno what your profession is, but you could make a very comfortable living publishing DIY material. I don't even have these cans, but I read the entire piece, viewing all the pix. Good job! |
