Description
These are the first of a range of templates that Beehive will be making available as we develop our Design Your Own Custom Eyewear Interface - please support us at projectpowerup.com/projects/26 if you print these for yourself!
Instructions
3 hour build time face-up (smooth exterior, rough interior, lots more support).
1.5 hour build time face-down (smooth interior, rough and chunky exterior like the ones pictured).
Integrated hinges are weak - be careful or replace with metal ones.
Holes for hinges will likely need to be drilled out after printing - use long glasses screws or a paper clip to fasten.
Probably not a good idea to soak these in acetone considering they will spend lots of time near your eyes! Use sandpaper/blowtorch/file to smooth out instead.
Please let us know if you better this design!
Happy Printing,
Beehive :)

Have you any info on lenses. Perhaps did you model these glasses off another pair?
Having trouble getting somewhere to make lenses as frames need to be CE marked here in the UK.
