[https://www.reddit.com/r/printforgood/wiki/index/] — — ## ABOUT If you require
help and think 3D printing can do this, it can be for anything you consider
“good” if, for example, your grandfather lost a small bespoke plastic gear in a
beloved clock, we can help with that too! Please make a post and use the
provided flairs; please describe what you need in reasonable detail and attach
or be prepared to send pictures that you think may be useful to the great people
here. If you have a Printer and are happy to help, that’s great. You don’t need
to be super experienced or trained in CAD; you may need to print and post
something to someone closer to you than anyone else. Please use your common
sense when it comes to locations and such. Please avoid making posts saying that
you have a printer, and instead, approach people who have questions asking for
help. You can set your printer type in your user flair. If you are an engineer
or trained in CAD software such as Creo Parametric, Siemens NX, Solidworks etc.,
please add the “designer” flair to yourself. Your skills are valuable and useful
universally, regardless of whether you have a 3D printer, as you can send the
STL to others closer to the target receiver. — — ## IMPORTANT NOTICE Please be
realistic about what can be done, do not trust your life to any solution offered
here, do not expect the parts to handle heavy abuse, please do not use any parts
in situations where they may be damaged or may damage you, such as labour,
driving or sport. You are being supplied a 3D printed component, not advertised
as an FDA Approved prosthetic or professional engineering solution. You are
responsible for the usage of the part and any effects this has. The supplier,
designer and this subreddit take no responsibility for injury, damage, or
otherwise caused by the parts provided. Please note that these are not formally
medically or veterinary-approved solutions and are not produced by a commercial
business. Capabilities may vary from person to person, and laws may differ from
one region to region. You install these items of your own choice and acceptance
of risk, and it is recommended to remove them at any sign of discomfort. — — ##
RULES 1. Be kind. 2. This community is for non-profit services only. 3. Offer
your expertise as assistance; do not undermine people. 4. Makers: Please don’t
waste people’s time. 5. Please review the wiki for important information before
making a request. 6. Make sure your requests are sufficiently detailed. 7. No
emails, phone numbers, or other similar forms of communication should be shared
in submissions. 8. No spam. — — ## Similar Communities - !openscience@lemmy.ml

When covid came, the local 3D print clubs/maker communities got together and mass-printer a variety of ear savers for the full range of local healthcare workers and first responders, then expanded to essential workers like drug store and grocery workers, mail carriers and delivery persons. [It was a variety of styles for the ear savers, because different styles worked better for different people.] It was a great effort, and we remember and remain appreciative of the help and support our community gave us.
