How To Make 3D Glasses

How To Make 3D Glasses

Lost your pair of red and blue 3D glasses? Check this out for an easy and cheap way to make your own!


Step 1:

Using Your Glasses

Whether you've seen my other video on how to make 3-D pictures using any digital camera, or you have an old magazine or comic book with 3-D images, but you've lost those red and blue glasses. I'll show you a quick and easy way to make your own.

Step 2:

What You Will Need

All you need are a cheap pair of plastic sunglasses, like these that came free with the Kid's Meal, a red and blue permanent magic marker, and any clear piece of flat plastic, like this transparency sheet.

Step 3:

Making Your Glasses

Use the old lenses as a template. Simply cut them out along the inside edge of the line, and then color them with the red and blue markers. Now simply pop our new colored lenses back into the frames. The blue will cover the right eye, and the red will cover the left. That's it! You’re done. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions or comments. I'm glad to help. Thanks for watching.

    LAST UPDATE: I promise! Some of the kids sunglasses are very lightly tinted, and you can just color directly over those, which allows you to skip having to cut new lenses, AND it works very, very well.

    The blue Sharpie that I mentioned earlier has a light blue cap instead of a dark blue cap. I found it in the grocery store where school/office supplies are. It comes in a package that has green, yellow, light blue, and red permanent markers, and costs about 2-3 dollars.

    I've actually switched to the thicker plastic that's used in packaging (everything seems to be using it these days, from toys to memory cards, flashlights, etc. as an anti-theft measure). Sandwich bags are just too thin and uneven.

    Thank you so much. My children are young and haven't experienced 3D movies yet. We have Lava Girl but didn't have the 3D glasses. This will be fun making the glasses with them and watching the movie. That is so neat!! Thank you for putting your directions online.
