MEMBER MONDAY πβ€οΈ Our very own Engine & Structures Team member, Bryce Martin, is working hard at home! βIβm working with a company in Northern California called Repkord that started this organization called OpShieldsUp [link below]. Makers with 3D printers are able to print face shield parts and then send those parts to this company where they take the parts, clean the parts and assemble the entire face shield to then send off to hospitals that need them. I would encourage anyone with an idle 3D printer to make use of this. Itβs a very unique opportunity to help!β .
