RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

Here's the information from a few days ago.

RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

What size sheet of plastic is required for the shield?

I opened the .dxf in vcarve, assumed a work piece of 12 x 12 inches and this thing is ginormous!!

Thanks!

RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

Thank you. Comments on that link were good too. Prusa is quite practical about what is useful.

RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

Thread moved to the new COVID-19 category to get more attention. 

Thanks for your activity and stay safe! 😉

@tdukes

 could the original be in Millimetres rather than inches?

@joantabb

Thanks, That was it! Switched mm and used a 304.8mm x 304.8mm workpiece. Fits perfectly!

Will be contacting my State Health agency to see if they are in need or would accept a 3d printed shield.

I have a JTech laser on my CNC so I could use it to cut them out.

RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

I can't seem to figure out the laminating film.  So if anyone has a USA Amazon link, but if they are not shipping.

Could a 2 liter pop bottle be cut for the shield?

Thanks, Grey

There are other simpler needs than respirators and masks too. For example everyone in our hospital is getting their temperature checked on arrival with an Exergen temporal thermometer, but the covers are disposable and will start to run out soon.

I found and ordered these off eBay. Hope they work.

Hello I'm new here I currently have 2 printers I would like to help make whatever I can. I live in Florence SC. The only thing is I only have just 2 rolls of filament left in my stock is there any companies that are sourcing filament to those who are helping?

I saw 3d printing nerd on YouTube was using overhead transparency film

RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

@tdukes

From what I have saw you can use overhead transparency film it's cheaper 

RE: COVID-19 3D printing resources thread

Hey everyone, I just started printing RC3 of the face shield mask on 3 printers. Can anyone point me to a place to source head straps and the necessary acrylic sheets? I am located in Düsseldorf Germany. Many thanks in advance. Stay healthy! - Alex

Chinese experts tell you about new coronavirus protection knowledge....
What to do on the way to work?

Wear disposable medical masks properly. Try not to use public transportation. It is recommended to walk, take or take a private car and bus to work. If you have to take public transportation, you must always wear a mask and try to avoid touching the items on the bus with your hands.

2. How to enter the building?

Before entering the office building, you can volunteer for a temperature test. If your temperature is normal, you can work in the building and wash your hands in the toilet.

3. How to enter the office?

Keep the office environment clean. It is recommended to ventilate 3 times a day for 20-30 minutes each time. Keep warm when ventilated. Keep a distance of more than 1 meter between people. Many people wear masks at work. Wash your hands frequently, drink plenty of water, and always wash your hands before meals and after going to the toilet. When accepting foreign personnel, both parties should wear masks.

I think I know what you mean, but that's not what that sentence says! 😀 

Unfortunately, in many locations, there is no place to volunteer for a temperature test.

At present, masks are not easy to buy, and the price is getting more and more expensive. What should I do?
I recommend to everyone a Portable USB LED UV Sterilization Box, a solution to your troubles
