Story
23/06/2020 - 4260 in total now completed
19/05/20 - 3988 faceshields in total now printed! Thank you all for your support.
12/05/20 - Total now stands at 3684 faceshields. Demand will go up as schools and other businesses prepare to re-open. Please show your support! :)
04/05/20 - 3445 faceshields have now been printed and distributed!
26/04/2020 - 2926 faceshields in total have now been printed and distributed! This is more than I imagined! I am still printing so please get in touch if you need any!
16/04/2020 - To date, over 1600 faceshields have been 3D printed and distributed!
With the lack of PPE being supplied to frontline workers, I am putting to use multiple 3D printers to get some faceshields printed for their use.
In the past week, I have made and distributed over 300 and I will keep printing until I can't no more. These have been sent out to hospitals, care homes, dental and doctor surgeries and pharmacies locally to Milton Keynes as well as outside MK.
This crowdfunder is to help with material costs so I can continue to make these.
I have also been featured in MKFM about 3D printing these faceshields too - Click here!
Alternatively, instead of donating, you can help by purchasing items on my Amazon wishlist to help with the production of these - Click here!
If you'd rather donate to me directly, you can use my PayPal Me page.
Your help and support is really appreciated and any donation towards costs, no matter how big or small will be of a huge help.
Many thanks and stay safe!
