Are you not printing visors and stuff for the cause yet then BM?   19000 engineers here are helping so it said on the news tonight.  rubschin:
It's better than I ever even knew.  They say that the world was built for two.  Only worth living if somebody is loving you.  Baby now you do.

I started printing them here but I got mixed-messages about their actual value - discussed in the 'Where are you today?" thread I think...

You did indeed

Got my 3D printer going again for the first time in the new apartment. Managed to find all the bits and get the software running.  cloud9:

I've been asked if I could help print some 'face mask supports' for the health service.  rubschin:

I reckon it could be a scam, I've no idea why a health care professional would trust their PPE to a (potentially infected) bloke printing stuff in a spare room in Pissouri...? Shrugs:

Nonetheless, it is a challenge and something to do...  Thumbs:




So I printed a pile of bits yesterday.

When I asked how the medical service could accept something from a bloke in Pissouri without knowing they were safe I was told that they would sanitise them first...

...but then I asked if they could sanitise them why would they chuck them away after one use and hence need some bloke in Pissouri to print them...? Shrugs:
Good point well made  :thumbsup:
Well, whatever, nevermind

It's going to depend on what chemicals are used in the sanitisation process, it could be that the plastic used for 3d printing can only handle being exposed to them once or twice.

Nope.
So you weren't pointing out that that could reuse the plastic parts of existing face masks by disinfecting them?

No, I was agreeing with you that it wasn't the point I made...  ::)

If they can clean the shit infected stuff I send them they can re-use the stuff they have...

Bear in mind that most of the stuff is manufactured in China and a lot of it is getting sent back for being of crap quality so it wouldn't surprise me to find out that a large percentage of the existing stocks wouldn't survive being sanitised more than a couple of times.
