3D Printed Face Mask

[The Novice EngineerParticipant @thenoviceengineer]

Hi

Found this link on another Forum and felt it should be shared to anyone interested,

3D Face Mask Instructions

The link takes you to a description page and print instructions with a further link to the STL file.

The build area required is 185mm x 215mm

The Transparent sheet can be any suitable A4 or Letter size clear film.

I shall be printing some off for ourselves and friends. My mother wants one when answering the door to the delivery drivers.

Stay Safe

Steve

This is a link to a 3D printed Face mask that uses A4 size transparent sheet

Without wishing to pour cold water on the laudable efforts described here, wouldn't it be quicker to make/print some simple clips to attach the transparent sheet to a readily -available baseball hat? Just a thought. Of course, you'd have to teach the younger generation to wear it the right way round!

I'll get me coat – and hat.

I'm currently printing my number 10 as part of this initiative:

When I have a box of 20 bagged up, DPD will collect them and take to a central location for having shields and straps added then sending out to hospitals.

Or even a construction workers hard hat, there's loads of them about and you can easily wash them. Opened up pop bottles would do for the visor at a push.

A little help from the great collective please.

I'm trying to print the Visor headbands from the N3DPS using my Factory 3D Printer, which I know a few others have got also.

I printed the first few with no issues, but then switched from PLA to PETG as requested; I ran out of PLA anyway. It's tougher and apparently much better for the purpose.

I am struggling to get a reliable set of settings and it's very frustrating. Typical issues are that prints will have a few holes in the top and sides, but a perfect base.

Anyone got any cura slicing settings and temperature advice? Bed – 70 and filament temp – 255 is required to get a strong print, or it delaminates.

Any suggestions gratefully accepted
Cheers Mark
