Can you share with me the experiences with a marble statue?Joe Parsons wrote: ↑Thu Apr 13, 2017 5:37 pm Hi Sam, I've had experience in loads of projects to try and make money out of laser scanning, from making replica marble sculptures to automotive work with some human cadaver scanning in between. Problem is it takes a lot of time, knowledge and research do each type of work properly.
If you bought a scanner my advice would be to corner a market you know and do a couple of applications really well (i.e. inspection / reverse engineering etc) rather than a bit of everything as you'll just end up spending hours and hours figuring stuff out.
We've tried selling scans before but there's a billion CAD models out there to buy for a couple of dollars e.g turbosquid etc so there wasn't really a demand
Let us all know how you get on!

Re: Profitable scanning?
I think the folks who designed the car engine might also grace you with a big fat cease and desist
You did not create or pay for the design
And you want to sell it to others
How would this be different from ripping a bunch of copies of a dvd and selling them on the street corner?
