Started my build for a new set of goggles. Printed in inland petg printing the right side right now, and ordered metal thumb screws. Any tips on adding the line 24 snaps? ---

Hmm, I wonder if a thumb screw that’s about half the height of those would be a closer match: ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/9/3/936834620bb7c03ed23b8b99bc383c214fe91247.jpeg) The frame looks great though, and the transparent print/bright colours combo really gives me [Kenner](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/kenner-10410) vibes. ---

Sadly the next size down is about half the size of the ones in the pic. As for colors, these may end up a nice weathered blue and yellow ---

What if you just cut down the length of the threaded part of the thumb screw so they sit a little closer to the lenses? ---
