Hallo Eric,
thank you for the Information about the norm, I will look at it.
For this shield is the idea to use it if you can not bay a professional shield.
Better than to have nothing.
A PET bottle is a good idea und everywhere in the world available

Another tip in case of using this as a last-resort: PET bottle can also be a source of a fairly strong PET sheet! The curvature might not be idea, but thermal treatment could help there.

Nice one. I had ordered elsewhere but that was much more expensive and smaller pieces. I intend to laser cut these, so this is a great suggestion. Thanks!

Hallo Erik,
i use 0.3mm pet foil form the hardware store or garden marked (it is used to build greenhouses) or from ebay (https://www.ebay.de/itm/Folie-0-3mm-x-0-54-m-PET-A-glasklar-hart-tiefziehfest-sehr-stark/123931587967?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=424713471128&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 )
0.2 is good too, I used this in the beginning, but especially when you want to clean the shield it is more easy with a stronger material.
Greetings and stay healthy Ralf

Great, no worries about the delay, glad it worked out. What kinds of sheets are you currently using and what do you recommend? I saw that Erik Cederberg is recommending DIN A4 PET foil of 200 micron (0.2 mm).

I will print a few and provide them to a hospital if I get the opportunity.
I'm in contact with a buyer at a hospital in NL. They confirmed that this is what they have a shortage of.
If they asses which ones they like best we can send more. Head comfort is really in important, as well as production time and quantity.
