[BriP]

I've lurked this thread...and WOW. Haven't seen it or you post for a while (unless you were hiding in other forums). Can't wait to see this go forward again.

have been busy- currently persuing my PhD in marine biology. The project is going along but slowly. sorry to all following.. but we will get there.

Brian sent me the project in 2016. I have the frame pieces and a clear M frame he sent me to go from. I tried going through an eyeglasses manufacturer in China, but blew it off for fear of mass production. I have been in poor health for the last 18 months due to broken neck and have not been able to put a lot of effort into the project. I found an optician here in the States to look at building the wire frame. The only issue is Oakley has a patent on the shape of the lens. I plan on resuming the project with said optician after the HOAX flu is over. My plan is to make two sizes. I have a roached pair of #3's for a large pair and a 3n for the small I plan to use for templates. What material do you plan on using? I purchased enoughTitanium to make 10 pair.
If you get it done before I do, I would like to see it.

I think I'd try whatever my engineer friend can get his hands on. Ti wire would be awesome.

Are you going to use eye rim wire?

Saw a surf video once with an Oakley sponsored surfer with a wire frame Zero, with pinch type closure on the frame on the outer sides, different than the prototype design, looked like double wire, which would create a “groove for the lens.

I’ve had a brainwave regarding this project and I’m expecting a Wire Zero complete in the next few days! Watch this space
