I’m sorry. I think I conveyed the wrong message. I was more gushing over my BIFL frames than suggesting they are superior to DIY frames.
I can’t change the style of my frames: you can. I can’t easily adapt my frames to sunglass shades, as you point out. You could conceivably create frames with cameras in the hinges, or adapt them for VR, or just make a crazy pair of party frames in rainbow colors and an Elton John flair - I can not. If I had a 3D printer - and the patience to use one well - I’d be all over your solution. It has a lot of advantages.
I didn’t mean to imply my frames are better; I was only saying that I’m happy to have found what are turning out to be indestructible frames that have outlived multiple pairs of lenses.

Don’t sweat it. I didn’t read anything in your comment other than that you’re happy with your frames 🙂 I was just adding to why I’m happy with mine.
