    Unhappy Looking for a Charmant frame

    Don't you love it when a patient orders a frame and it is phased out and nothing in the warehouse!:o

    I am looking for a Charmant #7731 color BE 56-15 with 140's

    Maybe your rep has one left in the sample case?

    My patient and I thank you for looking.

    Robert;)

    You could send it to the lab and see if they can solder it on.

    I did send to my lab, they said no go.. not even enough metal to solder, plus the frame was multi colored and would discolor significantly

    I assume this is one of those marvelous paper-clip henge frames that Charmant was stupid enough to discontinue. People refuse to give this frame up even if you solder it together several times. If I don't have one at the office you can: " Go to your nearest hobby shop and get a few feet of control wire, of the same diameter as the frame, take pliers and shape a new part or a similar shape to part of the part and replace/or re-inforce the origional part (usually the bridge).

    One last try

    I need to ask one more time to see if anyone has this frame on your frame board before I call the patient and tell him that I have exhausted all possibilities.

    Charmant #7731 Color BE size 56-15 with 140mm temples.



    Thanks for the last ditch effort!
