Mask Strap Efficiency 



This simple but useful tool is designed to make face masks less painful to wear for medical workers treating coronavirus patients.

The part is made by printing a set, and then connecting with any filament which will also set its width.  In this way, the filament which is needed for a single print is reduced and 18 sets on a 250x250mm print bed are allowed.

Small protrusions on both sides of the plastic buckle hold the mask strap and the mask strap does not exert painful pressure on the ears.

Savegrabber

Savegrabber - open door without touching the handle, press knobs without touching - additional barrier for the coronavirus and other germs Hi, this is my attempt to hopefully reduce the spread of the coronavirus or other germs, I call it the "Savegrabber". It is a hook-like device that allows the opening and closing of doors without touching the handle. There is also a tip to press buttons in the elevator or light switches. The touching surfaces are designed to be as small as possible, so the contamination should be low. My idea is to wear the Savegrabber with a retractable key chain on the belt or on a bag. If everyone would use this, I think this could be an additional barrier to germs. The print in PLA is sufficient and you can clean it using alcoholic  disinfect. https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/26146-savegrabber-open-door-without-touching-the-handle-/files
