Fantastic news! It is our hope that open source medical supplies can continue to meet the needs of healthcare workers and patients even once we are past the COVID-19 crisis. @OSMedSupplies #MakerForce #MakersVSVirus #3dprinted #PPE

🚨 So Prusa Face Shield RC3 passed independent testing and upcoming version too at even higher class 💪This means we have CE certification and can legally distribute them around EU even when the emergency state is over ❤️ Writing an article how to certify to help others do.. 1/2

90 new cases of COVID-19, no additional deaths reported as Navajo Nation surpasses all states in testing

Wear a face covering to protect your neighbors.

Wear a face covering to safeguard older Oregonians.

Wear a face covering to defend immunocompromised kids.

Wear a face covering to respect doctors, nurses, police, grocery workers, and others who take a risk to serve you.

This week we took in another super generous materials donation! @3DPrintlife sent us 100kg of NatureWorks PLA for us to supply our makers and keep the PPE suppy chain rockin'. It's our partners and sponsors that supply the fuel for this fire and we can't thank them enough.

[MakerForce @maker_force]

@ctrlhpdx @octosavvi Ah, nice!

[MakerForce @maker_force]

@CocaColaCo makes their bottles out of PETG, which is one of the best materials to source for the visors on the face shields we manufacture. They've been coming through for us open-source PPE makers in a big way /1

Check out how our volunteers cut this GIANT roll of plastic down to a manageable size at our partner @ctrlhpdx's maker space. #makersrespond #osms #PPE

[MakerForce @maker_force]

600 visors for UFCW 21 healthcare workers in Washington; and as dental offices are opening, this plastic will be used to supply their requests that are coming in since they generously donated their PPE to hospitals at the beginning of the crisis. /3

@cabbey Thank you for your time and efforts, every bit helps!

Today, we shipped out our largest single order to date to fulfill a request of 3000 pieces of PPE from the Navajo Nation in Window Rock, Arizona. Their per capita infection rates are now higher than any US states. /1

[MakerForce @maker_force]

And @ctrlhpdx for providing the laser cutter and training for volunteers to be able to manufacture the visors needed for this order.

We can make it, together.

@intel, whose makers contributed shields, and for facilitating overnight shipping to Arizona.

@CocaColaCo, whose donated PET plastic was used in making the clear protective visor portion of these shields. /4
