Jim Hofmann - Newton HS (Day 1 of productions learning curve.)
Off-topic for 3D printing, but on-topic for supporting our besieged healthcare workers: Please tell your son and the people he works with that I ring the bells on our church every day at 7 PM for them. Our carillon has been inoperative for over twenty years and when I heard about the grassroots community effort to sound a public "thank you" to our frontline healthcare providers, similar to the people in New York City who applaud from their balconies every evening at 7, that gave me an incentive to do some makeshift repairs to the system, enough to get it sounding again. We rang the bells for the first time since the last century on Easter Sunday and every day since.
Thank you,
Dave Sica

The original PDF file that had the hole pattern specs for the PETG cover has been slightly revised.
I originally struggled to get the 4th hook with cover V1.
I simply used a single hole puncher to make a minor edit to the PETG sheet. (Presto she fits)
I am merely trying to make you mindful that in forcing the plastic sheet over the 4th may break the headband that takes hours to print. (Just saying) be careful!
