    Redhot Jumper When doing some research on the internet ...........................

    So funny that somebody can just about kill a thread with their remarks that have nothing to do with the theme.

    When doing some research on the internet, I do fall on something interesting once in a while and post it here There is always somebody that appreciates it, there are a lot more people looking than actually posting.

    With the Advent that many frame styles are not being manufactured in multiply sizes, this would seem very plausible.

    ^^^ what he said. I remember some frames would have like 4 or 5 sizes, now if we get 2 we're lucky.

    That was the case in the 1950's when you had to stretch or reduce a bridge size and change the shape of the lenses to change the bridge angle.

    Some of these day's a frame manufacturer will wake up and look at the optical frame history and get the fantastic idea to revert a popular shape model into 5 to 7 different sizes, which could atually boost the professional retail business against on-line sellers, because it need some hands on service.

    It's an advert, but it's also interesting. I'm one of the first to criticise Chris but I'm glad he shared this.
