TPU Ear Protector #3DThursday #3DPrinting #PPE

Now that we are all wearing masks all day, ear protectors can really help with comfort. Check this one out! shared by rhattie on Thingiverse:
My take on a 3D printed ear protector, designed for maximum comfort. Made out of TPU to gently wrap around the back of the wearer’s head. Specifically designed not to have any hard surfaces or sharp points.
There are two versions of this design:
V2 is the current version, which can be printed in under an hour, and has been tested with 95A TPU.
V1 is a much thicker version, which may work better for softer materials (e.g. TPE). I would not recommend printing this unless you find that V2 is too flexible.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
