Junk in my head
After tearing down the scanners and being slightly disappointed that I wouldn't be able to mash this thing up nearly as fast as I thought (see The Tear Down), I decided to go to town on the scanner heads. I suspected some nice toys to play with down inside. This time, I would not be broken hearted!!!
The tear down
So I did some work on ScanRap recently.
Dave from THS was nice enough to donate a third scanner to the cause.
At first glance, it appeared to be more flat than the first two, and I was considering using it as my base axis.
So I get into the process of tearing these three scanners down and taking some measurements.
