3D Printer Sunglasses by Mykita
"The next time someone asks
where you got your glasses from, wouldn’t it be fun to say, 'From the

Sintering (SRS). In layman’s terms this is just another form of 3D printing,
but it is more sophisticated than the cheap plastic-manipulating
machines that get most of our attention. SRS allows the use of many
different types of materials, from nylon to steel, and it uses a laser
beam for the extrusion part of the manufacturing process." Read more.
