Show your disdain for Covid-19 and any other airborne stuff that can make you sick by wearing this easy to make and very inexpensive face shield that clips on a baseball style cap. The shield part is cut from a 2 liter soda bottle (the one I used was root-beer!). Cut the plastic to 270mm x 150mm and slide in the top of the frame. The part that clips to the hat has some 1mm supports built into the model. After printing I just cleaned them out a bit with a needle file leaving the inner surface of the clip a bit rough so it will grip the brim of the hat better.
This print uses about 20 meters of filament and takes about 4 hours to print.
Recommended print settings:
0.3mm Layer Height
5 layers top and bottom
10 perimeters (basically makes the entire print a perimeter and helps by adding a bit of flex to the material while maintaining strength).
This particular shield was printed with Transparent PETG. What ever filament you use it needs to be somewhat flexible so it can fit
