We would like to thank everyone who helped us with this! We where able to print over 1000 frames. This page now just serves as an archive.
Our healthcare workers and other essential employees are currently putting their lives on the line as the current COVID-19 pandemic ravages countries and communities around the world.
The Maker Community has come together to manufacture various types of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) to donate to local facilities.
3D Print PPE Supplies
If you have a 3D printer whose bed is 8×8 YOU CAN HELP!
Jim Hofmann of Newton HS Robotics has partnered with manufacturing companies in NJ to laser cut and assembled face shields and applying the elastic and padding.
All designs from the National Institute of Health.
COVID-19 Shield Frame
We will be printing the shield frames, which are then attached to the shields themselves.
