Transparency Film
There are other materials that can be used to create the clear plastic shield. Sheets of transparency film were used for testing purposes only.
Note: A minimum of 0.4mm for material thickness has been medically approved, only use thinner sheets for test fitting purposes.
Joining Sheets
These come in common paper sizes. These were 8.5in x 11in. The shield template requires a minimum size of 9.5 x 9.5in. Two sheets can be joined using packaging tape.
Sticky Mat
Position the transparency sheet onto the vinyl cutter sticky mat with the corner lined up and square.
Cutting Sheet
Use a material profile setting with a deep cut such as card stock, poster board or similar.
Knockout Holes
If the knife blade didn't cut through the two layers of tape, use a hobby knife to cut out the outline and holes.
