Field notes
The described workflow starts with a request, then adapts an open-source design to the wearer before volunteers print and assemble the parts. The site also describes a separate library of free-printable everyday aids and says that people can volunteer without owning a printer. Its homepage reports five printers and six active volunteers, while noting that the project is part of the global e-NABLE community.
