“A small group of us is trying to do our part in the current crisis by using our personal 3D printers to create a series of medical shields to offer to health care facilities that might have a shortage,” explained Ivan Potocnik, of River Road in Marcy. “This is both to help meet a portion of the demand, albeit on a small scale, but also to raise awareness,” and show other local people that they can help as well. They 3D print the shell of the visor, which cost about $8 each to make.
