Respirator Mask - quick to print, dip in hot water to form fit by aki-n
by Thingiverse
Last crawled date: 5 years, 6 months ago
Still WIP, probably too thin and fragile.
Use only if exposure can't be avoided and proper equipment is unavailable.
This mask is NOT approved for any use by any agency, use at your own risk.
We've failed to find filter materials that would block the banana scent used in fit-testing
Print in PLA (no supports, raft doesn't matter)
Print mask and cup separately (mask quality will deteriorate otherwise)
Printing in a light color helps see that the mask is flush with your skin
Dip printed mask in hot water and form fit it to your face, repeat as necessary
Paint the mask to seal the tiny cracks that are present in all 3d prints
Skin must touch the mask in a continuous line around nose and mouth
Use two rubber bands to secure the mask onto your face, more tension will help
