  • I have been an avid fisherman since I was a little boy. I dreamed about giant fishes and now as an adult I still dream of big fish catches. So I think it's natural to start my career as an "artist" by making myself a giant pike of steel.
    Please follow how I managed to make a 30 pound pike out of rigid sheet steel, as a complete beginner in art business.

    Hi, I’m interested in getting a bridge bumper made to put a bump on glasses. How do I connect with you to further explain and get to know if this is something you can and/or willing to do?

      Hi Ashley, thanks for interest in my channel. Unfortunately I can't promise that I could do a press for you. I had a short look at web and found device from company smallbatchtools.com/eyewear-manufacturing/bridge pumper. In that press there are two core parts, upper and lower mold to make the shape for the bridge. When DIY, you could sand or file those parts from hardwood, oak/ash/walnut. Make the molds a little bit bigger so that you can drill in suitable position aligning pins, long screws. Then it is much easier to press the molds together into correct position. For pressing you can use screw clamp. Plastic frames are thermoplastic usually, acetate. By blowing hot air you can soften the plastic and then press into correct shape. I once made tests with this kind of mold for thin laminated veneers. Just recently I made temple adjustments for epoxy casted temples by hot air. With hot air you have to be quick before plastic cools down again, so practice first with some waste parts. If you would make similar to the mentioned bridge press I would use a drill press stand as a starting point, they cost some 30$. I hope I understood your problem at least a little bit correctly.
