        Project 3D Mask Portugal, brings together individual volunteers, with access to a 3D printer, with a common purpose: production and distribution of disposable face shields for our healthcare professionals who are fighting the Covid-19 pandemic.

2. How can you help in the Algarve?

a)    Lagos Ciência Viva Science Centre launches the appeal to all individuals and institutions, with 3D printers, to join this meritable project printing shield frames. 

b)    Complementary, we ask all who have a CNC machine, individual or institution, that cuts vinyl/perspect, to help on cutting the shields to be combined with the frames printed on the 3D printers.

c)    All are welcome to be part of this project!

Everyone is welcome to collaborate both individuals or institutions.
