I'm looking to get some opinions on the best way to mount lenses on a resin cast of ecto-goggles. I recently ordered the frame and the telescope/microscope camera adapters that seem to be favored throughout the forums and don't want to botch the whole thing when I go to build.

I was thinking that a clean way of doing it might be to order lens mount adapters that could be attached to the goggles. That would make the the adapters removable and easier to replace if I were to find ones that were more accurate or that I like better.

Any opinions/personal preferences that can be shared would be much appreciated. I really don't want to screw up this investment.

Thanks!

I used 2 box adapters. You can find them in the electrical department of any hardware store.

Thanks Michael!

Anyone else? I've seen some insanely good goggle builds since I joined the site. I was hoping this thread would turn into more of a "how-to" for the various ways that other members did such awesome work.
