I'm making this design free (noncommercial) to anyone that wants to print them for their local helicopter flight nurses. If you need some but don't know how to get one made, please reach out to me directly.

folds up to the correct angle and is secured by 3x # 8 x 1" screws and snaps onto the NVG mount (total assembly in ~2 mins, https://t.co/1b2qDuHLdc).

This design was also tested directly under rotor wash, it held great, and the users love it!

I designed the helmet NVG mount based on @erikcederb's visor design (same spacing as 6 hole US version, but an 8.5" x 14" legal sheet covers the sides better), and added in some @joeltelling manta ray flair to it.

This design prints laying down to keep it strong, but then

After finishing that design, we found out that there is another very popular helmet model used (the Alpha with NVG mount).

A week ago, our @MakeItDayton group (associated w/ @masksfordocs) designed a face shield that would mount to a flight nurse's helmet...

[Levi @CareFudundae]

Just received some very positive feedback from our recent delivery to @VITAS Healthcare. Check out these #HealthcareHeroes in action with #3Dprinted face shields and ear savers.
Thanks for being awesome! #DaytonFightingCOVID

@MasksForDocs @makeitdayton @erikcederb

[Levi @CareFudundae]

Thank you to Chelsea from @VITAS Healthcare for reaching out to us. We just provided 100 3D printed (@erikcederb designed) face shields and 50 ear savers for her to distribute to her hospice healthcare co-workers!

#DaytonFightingCOVID @makeitdayton

[Levi @CareFudundae]

They expressed a need for face shields for their healthcare workers and ear savers for healthcare workers and residents that had issues w/ masks causing ear pain.

If you know of anyone in healthcare or emergency response field that could use these supplies, please reach out!

[Levi @CareFudundae]

We were so happy to make contact with Friendship Village, a large retirement community in Trotwood, Ohio. We were delighted to help them by sending over 800 face shields and over 300 ear savers (our largest delivery yet)!

[Levi @CareFudundae]

We've just delivered another 200 face shields (face sheets AND #3dprinted visors) to @KetteringHealth. This was a "test" batch just to try them out, but we're expecting to send them many many more!
