need help with covid-19 fase shields
Hi All,
I am currently 3d printing face shields for hospital/healthcare workers. I was able to source all materials and using my own filament to make the frames but I couldn't find elastics. Ideally I'd need buttonhole elastics for easy application (but any would do really) and removal and each shield requires 30-33cm of elastic to be adjustable and go over other PPE.
If you know where I can purchase several meters of the thing (width doesn't matter at this point) please let me know as it's out of stock in the stores or the stores don't operate, or you have some and willing to donate I'd be truly grateful. Unfortunately ordering it from overseas is not an option at the moment.

Thanks in advance,
Gabor
And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
