From the original mask by @lafactoria3d DISCLAIMER ================ This model has not been cleared by any regulatory agency. Use it at your own risk, and only as a last resort, if you do not have any other approved protection. The recommended measures to protect yourself from infection with the coronavirus COVID-19 are as follows: • Stay home and avoid contact with others • Avoid touching your face with your hands • Wash your hands frequently Note: This model only includes the mask structure (3 pieces) but does not include the necessary filter to effectively block the spread of the virus. Also, additional isolation measures may be required to properly fit the face without air gaps. Please check the comments for more information shared by other users about the types of filters that could apply to a mask with these characteristics. The effectiveness of P3 particle filters has been mentioned, and probably also HEPA 12/13, but unfortunately, we do not have the means of analysis necessary to confirm this with guarantees. Again, we remind you to use this model at your own risk. The Remix: ======== USC-Keck encountered problems with the front 'cap' popping off, so I transformed the original into a two-part mask. This means you would encounter a problem getting the 'cap' out to change the filter, so I added a hole in the front to pop out the grid via a pen. I call it a "Pen Popper".
