    Interesting drill mount sunglass lens shapes

    Hey all, i've been trying to brainstorm some interesting and unique shapes that you could make with an edger. Wound up making prescription heart sunglasses that the patient said had a very good prescription in them, and i've been trying to come up with something that would actually be able to be cut from an edger. Maybe something like half moons? I feel like if you could pull them off and make them look well, some patients might pay out the wazoo for them since I can't seem to find any online that offer the same service. Any good ideas?

    Yes! But with a pink fade tint on a silhouette frame. I'm addicted to making funky drill mounts now haha. Very interesting that yours have jewels on them too! Might make a demo lens cut out of a square, crescent moons, and some others that i can think of. Very fun to make

    Those arrowhead ones would be PERFECT if you lived in kansas city or had a lot of chiefs fans
