NanoHack, an open-source 3D printed mask against COVID-19 by Copper3D
thingiverse
The creator of 3D printing materials Copper3d has launched an open-source STL file online, allowing users to print a N95 mask at home to combat the COVID-19 virus. Instructions can be found on the link provided above. Two versions are available, and I've successfully printed the original one using my Creality Ender 3 Pro printer. The settings were flow at 160%, 220c with PLA Strongman filament, a durable type of PLA material. After over an hour, the mask was printed perfectly without needing any additional sealing. Initial joint fixation was achieved by applying cyanoacrylate, followed by epoxy sealant to ensure complete durability. Additionally, I designed and printed a key for the filter cover that can also be used as a dust cover due to its snug fit. A filter cover with a biohazard sign was also created to raise awareness about the virus. Update: I've modified the mask design to include two filters for improved breathing comfort and added a right-side filter cover with a left-hand thread for easier attachment.
