Small printer protective face shield

thingiverse

Since Prusa's model is too large for my delta's bed, I've created a three-part design to make a head support for the transparent plastic. The parts are connected by screws (using M3x10 on my design), and there are front holes for two screws to secure the plastic protector. On the edges, I added small inserts to hold the plastic edge in place and maintain the protector's shape. Adjustments to the head can be made using a rubber band from another set of two screws (again, M3) or by utilizing the provided holes designed for less PLA usage (don't worry; with regular filament, it's rather sturdy and not too material-hungry). The side pieces require approximately six meters each, while the bridge needs around 2.5 meters. With less than 15 meters (<10 on the slim variation), you can create an effective support for the transparent shield if you're willing to assemble it. I've combined various approaches to make the mounting process flexible. If you think of any modifications, your feedback is welcome. There are four versions available: * protection_3p.stl: Regular version with a 100mm wide bridge * protection_b.stl: Extended version with an 118mm wide bridge * protection_slim.stl: Regular version with low height (6mm) and <10M total filament * protectio_b_slim.stl: Extended version with both wide and low height
