I found a bunch of super-cheap kids sunglasses at the airport for my 3D-printed clip-on shades. No more concerns about UV damage 🙂

You can download the model here.

Thanks, these must be the first ever contraceptives you can 3D print

Thank you for finding UV blocking lenses. Was worried about your eyes from your previous (very cool) shades post.

Thanks for your regular posts. I like how dedicated you are! Contrary to some other posters, I like the look actually. Of course it would be nice to see them on a real face. Maybe you could gimp them onto an AI generated face.

Those are in fact my real glasses. They’re not just novelty glasses of a fun model you can 3D-print: I wear them all day every day and I put a fair bit of work into them - and into the accessories like the case and the shades - because I actually use them for real. So I wanted to make sure all the files to recreate them and how to mount and adjust everything are properly documented. I figured folks who are into 3D-printing would enjoy the design process.

Looks are in the eyes of the beholder of course 🙂

I have better than that: I used a 3D head model to get the looks right. It’s a Blender file, you can get it here if you want to play with it. I added it to my Github along with a couple renderings:

That’s the spirit. If I wore glasses I’d definitely give them a try. Unfortunately many 3d printed projects are half baked.

Sweet now I can finally look directly into the sun for a prolonged period.
