Local health care workers will be getting a little help from three Toledo Public School teachers soon by way of 3-D printer technology. Start High School's Karl Borko, David Dowling from Scott, and Mark Zientek from Toledo Technology Academy have teamed up to create visors for use at local hospitals. The visors with clear shields attached will help protect health care workers from both spreading or being exposed to germs as they care for patients.
Borko was contacted by the Toledo chapter of Sleep In Heavenly Peace, and agency that builds beds for children, to create the visors using software designed by Dana.
The three TPS instructors all part of the career tech programs at TPS jumped at the chance and made arrangement through the administration to take the 3-D printers to their homes to be able to create the visors.
Borko tells Fred LeFebvre that at this point each one takes about 90 minutes to complete and that he is working along with his fiancee around the clock.
