Sunglasses for Oakley Jawbone lenses

prusaprinters

<p>I made these glasses since I couldn't work up the nerve to buy real Oakley sunglasses so I figured the next best thing was to buy a pair of replacement lenses and then make a 3D printed frame. They work well and they are a great conversation starter. As an added bonus if you drop them in the ocean they float since they are mostly hollow.</p> <p>The frame has arm spacers and the arms have frame spacers to help with the clearance of the joint during printing. These spacers simply snap off after printing.</p> <p>Tip for others trying to make a frame fit another lens of a different shape.<br/> 1.Take a picture of the lens from the front and then the top.<br/> 2.Insert this picture into your 3D design software and scale to size.</p> <ol> <li>Draw the lens shape from the front then top. </li> <li>Extrude both shapes at 90 degrees from each other accordingly. </li> <li>Use a boolean intersect operation to create a nice lens profile. </li> <li><p>Scale this by about 1% to create some clearance for use in the frame design.</p> <h3>Instructions</h3> <p>Frame:<br/> Print at 0.1mm layer height with raft and support. (minor touchups)<br/> Print upside down and try to get the flattest spot you can. I usually rotated it to have the biggest foot print possible. The frame has arm spacers at the the hinge joint.</p> <p>Arms:<br/> The arms have a nice flat bottom to be printed on without supports or raft. The arms have a frame spacer at the end to provide proper clearance in the hinge joint. I found this was the best way to ensure the tolerances stay consistent any require little to no clean up for assembly.</p> <p>Extra Materials:<br/> QTY of 4 Stainless steel #1-64 5/16" long Phillips head machine screws.<br/> QTY of 1 Replacement lenses for Oakely Jawbone from Revant Optics<br/> <a href="http://revantoptics.refr.cc/QWS6MP2">http://revantoptics.refr.cc/QWS6MP2</a><br/> <a href="https://www.revantoptics.com/replacement-lenses/oakley-jawbone-polarized-stealth-black">https://www.revantoptics.com/replacement-lenses/oakley-jawbone-polarized-stealth-black</a></p> </li> </ol> Category: Glasses
