EDIT: USE PsuedoPancakev2b.obj FOR THE LENS, IT IS A FIXED VERSION THAT FIXES THE LENS DISTANCE AND LCD WALL THICKNESS
An 8th log was made but I have no clue why it didn't upload!
I am open sourcing the base headpiece right now, meaning you can build around it and make your own dream headset! This is the bases needed for an IPD system, faceplate and lens! I need to make fixes though, such as a better coupler design, actual screws and making the design more smooth (which i've done but haven't shared)
For the rods, the top should be an aluminum rod and the bottom a threaded rod! Links below:

Bottom Rod (Buy Two) https://www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-Steel-Threaded-Rod/3127735
As for the lens, here is where I have mines cut from! If you ask for the Pancake v2, they will know which ones you mean!
Lens (Buy Two 60mm and Two 70mm) https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805118558000.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.84.27ee1802j5aETi&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa
Display (Hopefully I can share the 90hz ones soon!): https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256803484049959.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2usa4itemAdapt
Remember to have the lens smooth side facing the eye and put a 60mm and 70mm on each side! Order doesn't matter!
Finally for those without a printer, feel free to use this PCBWay! You can also donate to me and help me work on this and other tech for a living or download the model here as well (soon)!
This is under the Hackaday page as Boson Skeleton (Assembly Reference), Boson Print (Easy Printing) and PsuedoPancakes v2! I have to make some tiny changes (making the wall thicker for the display, although for my use a bendy one helped) and
Do keep in mind the LCD piece needs a small fix (the screen should be a little further back) and that this was a rough model made with Tinkercad!
Final note, the lens design might look empty but it's using a 0.001m line thickness! If you use an editor and change the stroke value, you will see it!
