Friends,

I am looking for help spreading the word about an initiative we are 
launching to collect all of the 3D printers that we can from the local 
community, and put them to work at inventopia making medical hardware/ 
PPE for COVID-19 first responders.   A solicitation letter is attatched. 
   A “Print Farm” like this will allow us to produce in greater volume 
using just one or two people.

If you know people or organizations that have printers that can be lent 
to Inventopia in the short term, I will appreciate your passing this 
along and spreading the word about this effort.  I will make a similar 
announcement using social media later today, and if you see that, please 
forward that as well.

Thank you for your help,  stay healthy,

*Tim Keller*
