Medics have expressed fears over the protective gear supplied to them as the number of Covid-19 cases continues to rise. Medics helped choose the preferred design Copyright: other Sign up to our daily newsletter Enter your email Sign up “I never had any ambition to work in a face shield factory. I’m an academic who normally does mathematics and computer science,” said Edinburgh Shield Force member William Waites. “We would be so happy if the normal structures that are meant to work on supplying equipment to the NHS started doing that at the speed that’s needed. “We’d be glad, in a sense, to put ourselves out of a job - that would be great.” Medical professionals wrote to the Scottish government this week to express "grave concerns" about the protective equipment they have been given. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/health/coronavirus/coronavirus-scotland-inside-edinburgh-start-factory-making-face-shields-hero-medics-2533505 2/6 12/04/2020 Coronavirus in Scotland: Inside the Edinburgh start-up factory making face shields for hero medics | Edinburgh News Signed by more than 100 medics, the letter claimed some front-line staff are risking their lives in the Covid-19 epidemic with no suitable aprons, masks and eyewear. Based at the Edinburgh Hacklab - tech hub and hang-out in Summerhall - the group batted around ideas of how they could help once the crisis started to deepen. Informatics researcher Dr Waites added: “We thought why don’t we make ventilators but they are complicated so we started casting around for what would be possible for us to do and face shields came up as a possibility.” An online fundraiser to support their efforts has now topped £10,500 on its way to a target of £15,000. The group of engineers, academics and researchers have now turned their Summerhall lab into a factory expected to be able to produce 1,000 plastic face shields-a-day by the end of the week. Current production stands at more than 400 masks-a-day with 20 volunteers on a rota looking after ten 3D printers on the production line. The team are working on three types of face shield - 3D printed, laser cut and foam - to enable them to overcome any supply shortages in raw materials. Crucially, bofns have gured out a way of speeding up the normally slow 3D printing process - the preferred choice of medics. Their biggest recipient is the ICU unit at the Royal Inrmary but shields are also going to medics in the Borders, Dundee and elsewhere. “The reality is we’re making sure these things are in production for more than a week and giving them to people who need them,” said Dr Waites. “Nurses who are harried and a little bit desperate dealing with difcult things are super-grateful,” said Dr Waites. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/health/coronavirus/coronavirus-scotland-inside-edinburgh-start-factory-making-face-shields-hero-medics-2533505 3/6 12/04/2020 Coronavirus in Scotland: Inside the Edinburgh start-up factory making face shields for hero medics | Edinburgh News “They’re so happy when we turn up with four boxes, drop off two, go back for the other two and the rst two boxes are already in use.” Paramedics and NHS staff have even started turning up at Summerhall to pick up their own face shields as word spreads. Dr Waites is now sharing the lab’s know-how with Edinburgh University deans in the hope their economic clout can double or treble production. Engineers Martin Ling and Costa Talalaev were instrumental in guring out how to make printers go faster. They consulted medics who chose the simplest design as the most comfortable, while bigger nozzles on printers made the ve times faster. But perhaps the most exciting development was making the printers semi- automatic - meaning they can be left running overnight with no one needed to watch over them. The facility is documenting the process to be able to share it with the rest of the world in a bid to combat the pandemic globally. Those behind the project say their goal is for any similar group to be able to copy the process to keep their medics safe. Money raised through the fundraiser will go towards materials and operational costs. Any further funds raised beyond this will go towards the development and production of other medical supplies needed by healthcare providers. A shopping list details how £2 is enough to make one face shield, while £400 gets enough 3D printing lament for 1,000 shields The 3D printers cost £900 each while £1,000 gets enough plastic sheets for 10,000 shields. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/health/coronavirus/coronavirus-scotland-inside-edinburgh-start-factory-making-face-shields-hero-medics-2533505 4/6 12/04/2020 Coronavirus in Scotland: Inside the Edinburgh start-up factory making face shields for hero medics | Edinburgh News Organiser and mechanical engineer Marcin Morawski said: “It was really tiring and a lot of work but amazing. “Whenever I’d be unable to get anything - parts or volunteers - I’d post on Basecamp and within a few hours someone would turn up with the thing I needed - it restores your faith in humanity.” Anyone wishing to make a donation can do so at the Edinburgh Shield Force fundraising page. https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/health/coronavirus/coronavirus-scotland-inside-edinburgh-start-factory-making-face-shields-hero-medics-2533505 5/6 12/04/2020 Coronavirus in Scotland: Inside the Edinburgh start-up factory making face shields for hero medics | Edinburgh News This website and its associated newspaper are members of Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) Follow us on Explore News Sport What's On Retro Best in Edinburgh Lifestyle Hearts Hibs More from Edinburgh Evening News Announcements Buy a Photo Conferences Jobs Directory Local Guide Must Read Public Notices Reader Shop Useful Links Contact Us Advertise My Business Advertise a Job Place your Ad Subscribe Events Newsletter Archive Readers Charter ©JPIMedia Publishing Ltd.

  • 'A Room of Their Own': Heritage Tourism and the Challenging of Heteropatriarchal Masculinity in Scottish National Narratives
    ‘A ROOM OF THEIR OWN’: HERITAGE TOURISM AND THE CHALLENGING OF HETEROPATRIARCHAL MASCULINITY IN SCOTTISH NATIONAL NARRATIVES by CARYS ATLANTA O’NEILL B.A. Furman University, 2015 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History in the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Fall Term 2019 Major Professor: Amelia H. Lyons © 2019 Carys Atlanta O’Neill ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the visibility of women in traditionally masculine Scottish national narratives as evidenced by their physical representation, or lack thereof, in the cultural heritage landscape. Beginning with the 1707 Act of Union between Scotland and England, a moment cemented in history, literature, and popular memory as the beginning of a Scottish rebirth, this thesis traces the evolution of Scottish national identity and the tropes employed for its assertion to paint a clearer picture of the power of strategic selectivity and the effects of sacrifice in the process of community definition. Following the transformation of the rugged Celtic Highlander from his pre-Union relegation as an outer barbarian to his post-Union embrace as the epitome of distinction and the embodiment of anti-English, anti-aristocratic sentiment so crucial to the negotiation of a Scottish place in union and empire, this thesis hones in on notions of gender and peformative identity to form the basis for an analysis of twentieth and twenty-first century national heritage dynamics. An innovative spatial study of monuments and memorials in the Scottish capital city of Edinburgh highlights the gendered inequity of memorialization efforts and the impact of limited female visibility on the storytelling potential of the cityscape.
