Inspired from the shapes of a ticket.

You can wear it upside down!

Design/Preparation Process
Drawing the front face of the glasses on Fusion360 for laser cutting and creating a fully defined sketch
Creating two holes for the M3 screws on both side of the frame.
Extruding the sketch and filleting the edges to visualise which parts to be speed cut/cut/scanned.
Then from the left browser menu
right click on the sketch we want to export to dxf then select Export as DXF

Development / Implementation Process.
After exporting the DXF file and importing it Laserwork I realized that the curves are not split as i wanted them to be and some are joined to other
So i had to divide the curves on laserwork
Then downloading the DXF file to the machine
So i went back to fusion to trim the curves how i wanted, the blue shapes are supposed to be scanned.
But it still didn't work, the parts i wanted to be scanned were not appearing and that's because the shapes are not closed so i changed the design so that all parts are speed cut and cut.
Speed cut 330 - 15
Cut 30 -60

Designing the arms of the glasses on Fusion360 for 3D printing
following the same direction as the front of the glasses, the temples are also designed so the user can wear the glasses upside down and still has support
After finishing the sketch from the right plane i extruded the shape then extrude the part where the screws are placed
Fillet and adding white ABS plastic as material.

the curves were not as I intended when imported to Laserworks, not being able to get closed and joined shapes for the scanning part.
Trying to fix the issue on Laserworks was difficult as you don't have much editing control over the drawing, so I fixed the issue by changing the design.
