I am a product of the 80s - got my first pair of "Fakeleys" (fake oakleys) in high school for skee ball tickets - and have loved them ever since - except that in the past couple of decades I've actually paid for the real things - and it irritates me to no end to break a really expensive pair of sunglasses!
If I had a printer and a 3D scanner (and would have had the foresight to scan individual pieces of sunglasses prior to breaking them) I would be in pretty good shape right now - but alas I have none of the aforementioned! so that is something I would use that equipment for in the future should I A. get the equipment, and B. plan ahead enough to disassemble them and scan them before they ever leave the house!
(anyone in AZ have all this equipment and want to see if it's possible, contact me - if that's even possible with this post) I'd love to see what we could come up with!
