Facemask Holder for COVID-19

thingiverse

This is mask holder that I designed for personal use. Currently I'm using the paper towel to show case how it would be used, but it can be essentially be used with cloth material or other filter materials as well. This is just a holder for any form of material that you can use. As you can see in the pictures, it can be used with rubber band, elastic material, or just cloth ties, and can also be paired with the ear savers that I designed, or any ear saver designs that are online. You can also use a full elastic band, and use the ladder style system to hold it. Measure from one ear lobe to the other around your neck, which seems to work for me without being too tight, and since nothing is fixed into the spot it can be adjusted as required. The format i used for the folding can be found in the link below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usKgChGqVl0 This is just meant to be a preventative measure, and by no means is comparable to effective and useful of n95 mask, but those are reserved for the medical workers. Nose guide can be dipped in hot water and adjusted to your nose shape, once you have the right shape, you can glue it on the outside of the mask. (Least complicated way of getting the fit right.) If I can make any changes to better the design please feel free to message me or leave a comment. Update 1: 5/15/20 - Adjusted tolerance on the face mask holder. Update 2: 5/18/20 - Got rid of fillet's since at the thickness you're printing they are hardly noticeable - Adjusted the tolerance - Facemask Holder 2.0: No Fillets on the insides - Facemask Holder 2.1: Fillets on the select sides (Won't make much difference considering the thickness of part, but i decided to include just in case someone wanted it.
