Just got the sunglasses in the mail, hoping to use my school's 3D printer to get the sideblinders... This should be fun

You still trying to make the blinders?

Yeah, should be done on Tuesday or Wednesday. I put it off for a bit cause midterms [emoji14]

Nope sorry, I'll take a pic of it when it's freshly printed then one after it has been sanded. Do the sideblinders need to be slightly bigger than the sunglasses themselves?

1- The binders have a tiny lip above and below the glasses edge so that the glasses can lock into place for a snug fit.
2- there are actually 2 lenses in the glasses, the ruby red on the outside (custom) and a golden lens inside to reflect the light for the camera, pres fit into the binders.

Any pics of the inside of them?

Did you ever print these up?

No sorry, forgot to update. Our printer was taken away in school for something, I'm just gonna do a foam build today and take photos later. I really wanted to print it.

in the movie they don't show it and I can't really post any pics....

Made a temporary foam build, I'm still gonna try and find a way to make this plastic. It's more or less a rough idea on how my vision is going to be like and the look of it - I don't like the way the foam process went.

Maybe a thermoforming plastic then mold them around the frames? That way they sit perfectly around the frame, I'm just not sure if the shades frame would react to the heat or not though

just did a quick mock up with these http://www.amazon.com/Multi-Hazard-...&qid=1464897723&sr=8-12&keywords=side+shields just gave em a quick coat of blue spray paint, I thought they actually came out pretty nice just a quick work around if you're not interested in scratch building something
