Poor man's face shield / visor

thingiverse

Update 200325: The design has now been refined in several key areas:\r\n* Reduced material usage\r\n* Fits a (i3 mk3) print bed (2 beds PET + 1 bed TPU), producing 5 visors\r\n* Improved method for securing the transparent film - simply push the side bars onto the film when loose, then slide them parallel to the edge to lock them in place\r\n* Added a grip on the top edge of the film\r\n* New motives have been integrated to give a more human touch (minimal increase in print time, only one filament change required)\r\nTwo .3mf files are available for download, providing detailed instructions. Alternatively, you can print the STLs (1x V, 1x H, 1x låsbit, 2x list)\r\n\r\nA doctor at a hospital in Stockholm requested that I quickly design a face shield as they were running low on supply due to COVID-19. The design was completed the same evening (March 16th), and has since been tested and refined. I'm sharing it now in case others require it.\r\n\r\nThe goal wasn't to create the most advanced visor or face shield available. Instead, the design prints quickly on a home printer, using all parts from a single bed (except for the soft components, which are printed separately for efficiency). All you need is this print, an overhead film (A4 size), and a 1.5cm elastic band.\r\n\r\nPlease note that the side bars are intentionally tight; test-mount the parts first, and handle them with care.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, be aware of the indentation inside the lock part. This indentation mates with the bump on the frame (handle with care). To assemble, slide the lock part onto the female side, connect the male side, then slide the lock part into place.
