🙏🙏 Today we assembled 3,380 (!) face shields (video link in bio). Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the effort to make protective gear for healthcare workers! We are so grateful to be supported by the maker community and spirit of innovation.
Join in on the effort to 3D print headbands and drop-off outside of FirstBuild at 333 E. Brandeis Ave. This genuinely makes a difference in the fight against COVID-19!

Join in on the effort to 3D print parts for face shields!
Makers with a home 3D printer can help produce headbands from the @josefprusa designed template (see link in bio). When finished, drop headbands inside the box (outside of) FirstBuild at 333 E. Brandeis Ave. They will be processed @universityoflouisville and distributed to healthcare workers all over the region.
Due to heavy demand, they are going out as quickly as we make them. Help spread the word! ❤️
