Please check out my Instructables documentation page on this project. This is a 3D-printed face shield that I designed to be able to securely slide a clear plastic sheet without needing to punch holes. It also includes protection above the forehead to prevent particles from entering from above.
These are several completed 3D-printed batches of face shields that I was preparing to send to Sunrise Manor Nursing Home on Long Island.
Here is a finished print batch of 12 stacked face shields. I designed the shield frames to be stackable so that I can print a whole batch of frames stacked on top of each other every day. They easily snap off each other after printing.
I was getting some major print errors because I was printing some of the layers too fast and too cold. I did some experimenting by modifying the G-code files to be able to get a perfect printing result.
Here is a diagram of how I modified the speed and temperature of the printing process in order to get perfect stacking adhesion.
Here is a 3D model of the modular, stackable design that maximizes the print volume of my home 3D-printer.
