WIP...National Treasure Ocular Device

[Droidboy]

Being the super National Treasure nut I am, I finally decided to start putting this together after holding onto the parts for so long. I still need to change the finish on the glasses and have lens cut, but so far I'm pretty happy.

A shout out to Gigatron for his assistance in making sure I was doing this right !

It's definitely going to be weathered. Just wanted to make sure I could build it before I spent the time doing it.

Thanks!

How did you deal with the center angle on the sides of the lenses?

 

[aceofknaves88]

Wow, that looks really awesome.

 

[DeadDingo]

very impressive
You changed the shape of the lens' extremely well.

Excellent work. Once they are weathered, they will look superb! I'm looking to replace my own set....I'm not happy with them.

Nice job Gregg.... Is that really your first attempt at putting them together?

Schubro...I just worked at them until they looked right. I didn't have any real formula or method. Just a lot of bending. I probably have 2-3 hours into it.

Mike...yep, first attempt. I have enough parts to build a second set, so I might go ahead and order another set of frames.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I still need to weather them, maybe this weekend still.

Looking great Gregg! I know we've talked about this, but the frames you used for these are a stock item right?
