I used these goggles because they're a decent green color, and have individual eye sockets (standard 50mm) instead of a flat plate which I thought looked cool.

The lenses are 3D printed (on my Printrbot Simple Metal) based on Crydrk's models on Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:616432) modified to have a 50mm "ring" that fits perfectly into the sockets and are easily removable.

I learned a lot about painting PLA plastic: I really hate Valspar "spraypaint for plastic" (it's glossy, ugly, and thick) and love Rustoleum's filler primer and primer+paint.

Over the head strap is just 1" web strap and a couple of snaps.

I'll likely redo the lenses, maybe adding LEDs. I may just fix all Crydrk's models to my liking (they need proper sizing and to rotated to print, at least) and may also add labels if I can figure out how to print metallic labels.
