Covid19 Prusa RC3 Face Shields Retro fitted Kiwi Style 10 Stack

thingiverse

Here in New Zealand, Kiwis have responded quickly to the challenge of printing face shields using Prusa's designs. Many are working tirelessly to supply front-line workers such as police officers, public health officials, chemists, and shop assistants with these essential units. We need all 3D printer owners to join the effort and help combat this invisible threat! A huge thank you goes out to Prusa and his team for making their designs available. New Zealand's community has also come together to adapt these units for mass production. I've dedicated my machines to producing free face shields, printing 30-50 units daily. Thank you to TCL Hunt Group Wellington for donating raw materials to help us continue this vital work.
