Quinn answered a request from the local hospitals for help with creating “ear guards” to help take the pressure off health care workers’ ears from wearing masks all day. He got busy on his 3D printer and has been turning out dozens of ear guards to donate.

Edit: Due to the unbelievable response we have decide to post the link to the file we are using. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4249113

We need more volunteers to fire up their 3D printers and donate these ear guards to hospitals and medical professionals!

Lou…I’m in - I will start printing several of these. How do they get distributed?

That’s great and I will be checking with the local nurse I’ve been working with providing face shields to see if they need these too.

FYI @Lou when you post a URL look to see if it has ?fbclid in it and remove everything from that to the end of the line. It will keep Facebook from tracking you, and everyone else, beyond their little garden.

I just checked with my nurse-daughter and she verifies: worthwhile!

Consequently, “I’m on it!” Good addition, Lou, thanks.

Yes! Our ears hurt so badly by the end of the day.

In your world of stretchy elastic would these be useful?
