You can help make shield parts whether or not you have a 3D printer!
Printed VisorsHelp 3D print these visors for the face shields!

Foam Forehead CushionsHelp make cleanable forehead cushions for the shields!
|
Wearable StrapsHelp make straps to make the shields wearable!

How it works:
- Choose what you want to make: visors , foam, or straps. Note: you need a 3D printer to make the visors.
- Watch or read the linked tutorials first to see which you would like to make!
- Sign up to make your parts in the form below.
- We will supply you with materials needed to make your parts.
- For the printed visor, we will supply you with PLA filament. You must have access to your own 3D printer!
- For the foam forehead cushions, we will supply you with foam and packaging tape.
- For the straps, we will supply you with strap webbing, rubber bands, and super glue.
- Begin making your parts and every week we will collect your parts for assembly! You can either drop off your parts at a core team member's house or one of us can pick them up from your front porch.
- If you are printing parts, the expectations of production will depend on your own printing capacity. A production of at least 25 visors per week would be a good minimum to shoot for (but more is greatly welcomed!)
- If you are making foam forehead cushions or wearable straps, you should be making at least 50 parts per week. This is likely to translate to less than 2 hours of labor per week. Again, making more is greatly welcomed!
- Please place your produced parts in plastic shopping or garbage bags and close them up before giving them to a core team member. This is done to minimize the risk of contamination in transportation.
- If you want to make multiple parts, you are welcome to do so. However, please only sign up for what you can handle!
- If you print visors and make forehead cushions and/or straps, you should attach these parts to your printed visor before giving them to us.
- If you make both forehead cushions and straps but not printed visors, please bag the foam and the straps in separate bags before giving them to us.
- We are not currently seeking any assemblers because we are the ones with the materials to make the actual shields of these face shields and because we have to perform quality control on the parts you provide us and the final shields.

Printed Visors
Print the provided .stl file flat side down (you might have to rotate the object in your slicer) at 0.3mm layer height without supports or rafts.
Legacy (older v2 design) and experimental files are included (such as one cut into thirds for very small printers). An official 2-part .stl will be coming soon for printers that cannot fit the visor in one piece! |
Foam Forehead CushionsMaterials. 8 inches of 1/2"x3/4" vinyl foam tape, 2 inch wide clear packaging tape, scissors
|
Wearable StrapsMaterials. 1/2" wide webbing (2 7" straps), scissors, super glue, 2 rubber bands, clothespins or clips

This video shows how to assemble the V2 design. The new V3 design mostly follows the same assembly procedures except the disclaimer labels and 3 mil lamination parts are no longer needed.
