Not only does Mike need to put a pic of Suzanne's glasses on his site, I think he needs to put up a pic of HIM wearing Suzanne's glasses. In fact, I think he needs to put up pics of him wearing all the fun frames we send him. It can be a little goofy gallery of Mike in many stylin' pairs of glasses

Not to spoil the fun but I have a serious question about glasses - I have the basic didydium ones with the perforated flip out pieces - is there a reason for those beyond the obvious one of protection against flying glass? Are smaller glasses less safe?

That said, I do LOVE these...

If you use reasonable care to preheat your rods so they don't shatter upon immersion in the flame, there is very little "flying glass", except perhaps when you cut a rod with a pair of nippers.

This is one reason why we sell "street" wear frames - we got so many requests from folks that didn't want the "birth control" safety glasses...

Again, let me reiterate what I said above - I'm game to try to put lenses in these ...uh... "oddball" frames, BUT there absolutely HAS to be existing lenses in the frames that I can trace to match the shape. I cannot, repeat, CANNOT put a lens into one of these frames that does not already have a lens in it. I need to have something I can trace.

Ok, you've convinced me.

I'll be contacting a couple of the "novelty" suppliers I know. I'll see what I can dig up.

I'm resurfacing this thread -- the frames came in, and I popped the lenses in yesterday afternoon. Took some doing - the lenses aren't quite the same right to left, but (sighs) oh well....

We took some pictures of the crew here, so you'll be able to put faces to names now. I'll have them up on the website (and here) probably on Monday next week.

Suzanne - they are shipping out today!!!!!

I suppose it's kind of late for me to post this, but just in case it can help anyone out, I bought myself the value-line small metal frame AUR 92. It's the first one on the page here:

http://www.auralens.net/e_gw_frame_value.cfm
They just looked the hippest at the time. Now I like the new biker wrap arounds!

And this is what I look like in them:
