Sunglasses

thingiverse

I made some sunglasses because it's summer. There are two versions available: bruen44.stl: This one is intended to be printed in one piece including the hinges. It actually works very well but the frame is a bit fragile and looks a bit rough with some materials when printed in this orientation. Pro-tip: print it upside down! It'll use much less support material this way. > Pros: + Prints in one piece + Printable hinges! + ... + Profit! > Cons: - Support removal can become critical to the structural integrity of the frame - Looks less awesome - More fragile bruen48*.stl: This comes in three pieces which can be tucked together afterwards very easily. > Pros: + Much nicer finish on the front face + Groves for the glasses come out more precise + Side pieces can be printed in different colors/materials + It's possible to disassemble the glasses + You can get rid of the lettering easily + Support removal is much easier with almost no visible residues > Cons: - Several pieces - A bit more wobbly side pieces (but they're both quite wobbly to be honest) I haven't put in real glasses/lenses yet; I have to find some cheap ones to get them cut into the right shape. The picture I've attached is from version #48 btw.
