 have been making face shields.
 
 Use the clear sheets for overhead projectors. They dont have to be cut down. Get some foam, firm 1 in thick x 1 1/2 in wide. Drill or cut holes in foam 1/2 in in diameter and super glue it to the long edge of the clear sheet. Staple elastic to each end to fit your head size and voila one faceshield. I would also use cling film to cover the clear sheet, in and outside, so after use you just dump the cling film and not the face shield .
 
The holes in the foam are to stop the the face plate fogging.

I should get good protection using a shield with a mask underneath
