Articulated Laser Cut Covid Face Shield
Description
Everyone is making face shields, but the 3d printed ones were both too slow, and while the hospitals are super appreciative, feedback from nurses, is that they don't fit well, and can hurt their head after a period of time. So I designed an articulated laser cut version that fits from the smallest head, to the largest. it's extremely comfortable to wear for hours, and uses any off the shelf 8.5 x 11 transparency, or Binder cover, punched with a 3 hole pattern. This allows them to be easily and quickly changed, even while wearing gloves. This is also the cheapest to make of any design I've seen, as a full sheet of 180 comes out to .48 cents each, and wastes almost no materials. Whereas someone can print maybe 20 per day, I've made as many as 600 in a day by myself. This is about keeping the cost way down, providing a durable, comfortable, and easy to sanitize face shield. These were approved, and Extremely well recieved by 3 hospitals in Atlanta, and Several in New York, and Detroit. Please Share, and Please! Use any tools at your disposal to make shields, whether 3d printed, hand made, or laser cut! Every shield matters! These are for donation only. If you have to recoup your materials costs, that's fine, but no commercial use please, as we have a provisional patent on them to assure that they remain in the public domain, and are not sold. Thanks all!
