Safety/Fashion Glasses

I made Multi use glasses out of resin and acrylic plastic. I used the resin for the frame and the clear acrylic for the lens.

Supplies

I Used filament from the 3d printer to make all of the prototypes of my frame and Resin for my final frame. For the lens I used a clear acrylic plastic sheet.

Original Sketch

This is the first step to Making the glasses. Getting the right outline in fusion. Nailing the original sketch in order to move on, simple but is the foundation for the whole project.

Extrude/Full Look

I did this about twenty five times to be honest. This is just one of my prototypes in fusion. This gives me an even better look after the sketch on how I want the glasses to look. But obviously its hard to see how big they are on a screen.

Prototypes

Like I said in the last step I've made countless prototypes for these things and this is one of them and the first one. I upload my fusion design to the 3d printer and test out the size and see how they fit and if their wrong then I go back onto fusion and try to fix what I think is wrong and try again.

The Lens

For the lens I would take my fusion model and trade the middle offset line and put that on the laser cutter. At first I wanted to make a cam and do it on the cnc router but that ended up just picking up the plastic because we had no way of keeping it down besides double sided tape and it just wasn't enough.

The Arms

For this step there was some problem solving that needed to happen. The base of the arms were way to thin they would start to snap off really easily. So if you look at the picture you can see that I made the base a lot thicker so something like that doesn't happen anymore.

Separating the Arms

I am fixing a problem with the arms. They are being printed to high up so the plastic gets messed up. So I am going to make
