Washington State 3D Face Shield Hub
We are raising money to create face shields for healthcare providers in WA state. We have already distributed more than 14,000 NIH-approved 3D printed face shields, and are now starting to produce at scale via injection molding.

About

Our group started out coordinating makers, working from home, to 3D print face shields (https://www.facebook.com/groups/209781503693623). We originally saw ourselves as a local stop-gap measure until industry would spin up and fill the need. That hasn't happened, however, and so we are now scaling up our own efforts.
We have secured a supply chain that can deliver components for as many as 10,000 shields a day at full production, including an injection molded frame, die-cut polycarbonate shield, elastic band, foam strip for the forehead, and packaging. Together these components cost between $1.50 and $2.00 depending on volume.
We are now raising money so we can scale up our production. Our funds are also used to purchase materials for our makers, who are continuing to 3D print components at home, and who are now producing up to 1,000 shields a day. By buying in bulk, we can get the best pricing, and help makers keep printing who might not otherwise be able to continue purchasing and donating their own materials. We also reimburse mileage driven by our road warriors in picking up and delivering face shields.

Since this effort started…
- Volunteers have driven hundreds of miles to do pickups and deliveries throughout the state.
- Our makers have been using their own resources and funds to make, sanitize, and deliver more than 10,000 face shields to various hospitals in Washington state (as many as 1,000/day).
- We’ve successfully made deliveries to healthcare workers at the following medical facilities: Valley Medical Center (IM/ICU), Swedish Hospital, First Hill (ANESTH), Swedish Hospital, Edmonds (RN ICU), Swedish Hospital, Cherry HIll, Yakima Heart Clinic, Harborview Medical center, Evergreen Hospital (RN), Highline Hospital, St. Anthony’s, Community Healthcare, Everett Clinic COVID test sites.
- We have a growing backlog of nearly 30,000 unfilled requests.
- We’ve had over 100 hours of conference calls to coordinate logistics and determine the ways we can unblock our volunteers in their efforts to help frontline workers.
