  • Summary

  • Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, shortages in Personal Protective Equipment or PPE for medical professionals have been an ongoing issue. Two key types of PPE in desperate need are face shields and surgical masks. To mitigate this shortage, educators, makers, and everyday people have been sewing, laser cutting, and 3D printing PPE and then donating them to medical professionals, neighbors, friends, and family members. In this new podcast series, we’ll be talking to the amazing people volunteering their time, materials, and expertise to mitigate the shortage of PPE. In this episode, we talk to Jeff Solin (@JeffSolin), Computer Science teacher at Lane Tech College Prep High School here in Chicago about his efforts to design, make, and distribute PPE. • Solin Flatpack Face Shield bit.ly/solinflatpack • Illinois PPE Network illinoisppe.org
