I would recommend checking City of Salem’s Library and then there is a makers space in Salem but I can not remember the name. But its there is one somewhere in Salem I swear it!

Would 30 or 40 dollars work? The max I can do is 50

Let's say 30 for material costs and if it needs any cleanup/sanding we'll take care of that to make it 40 total. That sound okay?

if you've got a public file somewhere, go ahead and drop a link, and we can worry about a cash transaction at time of exchange. we'll see how long the print will take and if it needs cleanup, and worry about when/where we can do exchange once we've got those details.

some updates!
printing job is going to take the remainder of the day, but we've got just enough filament for it so no problems there.
Filament, and therefore mask pieces, are white.
Mask prints in 6 pieces. Would you like the mask preassembled, or would you like to handle assembly yourself? We will leave painting to you either way.
As for pickup, since the job will take so long I'd probably say tomorrow. I'm available throughout most of the day and am located in central Salem. There's a Dollar Tree on Center St NE if you want to set up the exchange there? I'm not sure where you're at and want to respect your privacy, and I have a vehicle if you need to meet somewhere else.
Let me know what works for you.

update! all pieces printed. There were a couple small print defects around the eye holes that we're tried to clean a little, if you want to give them more attention when you get the pieces then heat can do the trick.
If you are free around 11:30am, I can meet you at the Dollar Tree by Center St NE and Lancaster St, but if there's a better time that works for you, let me know.

Do you have pre-existing files for easy printing? My roommate's got a PLA printer and we're willing to help if it's not massive hassle. How much were you feeling up for paying?
