If there is no rubber band available for the protective face shield number 4279712, consider using this printed elastic strap as a possible alternative. It might also be suitable for other face shields, but I only tested it with the one mentioned above. The strap should fit most sizes, thanks to its adjustable design featuring two rectangular holes on each side that allow three different positions. To verify this, refer back to the description of face shield number 4279712. To ensure safe manufacturing practices, carefully read the following guidelines: Act as if you were infected with the COVID-19 virus when handling the printed parts. Wear a face mask and a fresh pair of gloves every time you collect each batch of printed parts. Then, store them immediately in a sealable bag. Inform anyone receiving the shields about your manufacturing environment to help prevent cross-contamination. Although there is ongoing debate about how long the COVID-19 virus survives on plastic surfaces, most sources suggest it lasts between two and three days. By letting the packed face shields sit for this duration before distributing them, you can significantly reduce the risk of transmission. Store the entire stock in multiple locations to minimize the risk of cross-contamination. Source: Josef PRUSA Licensing and selling face shields: We share these files under a non-commercial license.
