Prusa Face Shield AnyStrap (Head Strap)
Prusa Face Shield AnyStrap (Head Strap)

A doctor my wife goes to needed a better solution than her current facemask so I printed the Prusa Face Shield, but then realized I could just design an AnyStrap that would work as the elastic head-strap, so here is that design.
I've heard good things from the doctor who also takes this with her now when traveling also. =]
I tried to accomodate most head sizes but if you print it and it's not large enough comment or send me a message and I'll design a longer one and add it.
Lastly, these can of course be used for other things besides a face shield. Anything you can come up with!
Due to how thin the straps are to be elastic and comfortable enough, I recommend printing on blue painters tape with your flexible filament so they are easy to remove without deforming the strap. If you have a quality build plate this shouldn't be an issue.
I tried to make the design minimal on material but with enough to still be durable with regular use, and to make the print time a little faster. Mine print in just under 40 minutes at a slow 15mm/s using TPU.
