Anyone have any ideas for Nasal Pillow masks?

RE: The "Woozle" Alternative to Chinstrap for FFM
Woozle works great for me. A lot fewer leaks!
I have been able to open my lower jaw enough to break the seal at the bottom of the mask and
the mask rides up making the problem worse.
The woozle prevents all that.

I trip to the hardware store and cloth supply then about 5 minutes construction time.

Just do it.

My wife knocked one up for me today in about 5 mins flat, she used a piece of soft ribbon and velcro. i gavie a quick test run on the bed and my mask never leaked or moved when I rolled to either side as if I was sleeping. I have memory foam pillow and it used move my mask, but not so with the "woozle" attached.

Update.

It's been 5 days now since fitting the "woozle" to my mask, boy has it made a difference. I am no longer fighting my mask at all hours of the night, trying to stop it from blowing air from the mask on the bridge of my nose and sometimes into the corner of my eyes.
I am also now sleeping 8 - 9 hours a night, prior to the "woozle" I was having the odd 8 or 9 hours sleep but it was fraught with fighting my mask throughout.

Thanks to this Forum and in particular this Thread and solution by Woozie38, I am back to enjoying my Resmed again and sleeping well.

Does anyone have pictures of their woozle that you could post to the forum?

Looks like previous pics are no longer there.

EDIT: Now they're showing up for me. I'll go ahead and edit the first post to include the pics.

Note: If using your "Woozle" with F&P's Simplus mask, when removing mask, instead of undoing the velco under your chin, simply release the clip of the side strap with the "open" loop. This will save wear on the hooks & eyes of your velcro & it will last much longer. When donning your Simplus mask, just pass the strap with its clip through the "open" loop and fasten the clip back to the mask. - Done.

The Woozle always sounded to me like some new dance step or something...  Too-funny

Sort of like Dick Van Dyke's "The Twizzle"...
