• Remeshing without hole filling

  Yep, that's what I've been doing as a workaround for now, but leaves the surface looking like cornflakes. That's one of the few things I do miss about Artec Studio. They had a really decent remeshi...

• Remeshing without hole filling

  Right now, my top request is an option for a remeshing algorithm that doesn't automatically fill holes. I recognize the way that the Poisson screen method works, it's not really an option, but if y...

• Electric screwdriver assembly thread

  @Trevor Townsend Yup, Toolbag has a bunch of high quality triplanar materials that I used over the scans. Only the circuit board is using the scanned textures as I was able to capture it without ne...

• Electric screwdriver assembly thread

  I've made a lot of progress on this over the past week. I scanned the motor housing and also started adding wiring using curves in Blender.

  I rescanned the battery to try and capture a bit more fidelity. I had some help from Trevor while I was having some alignment issues, and I think it came out pretty well! I'm especially happy about...

  Some fun translucent plastic renders out of Marmoset Toolbag. Gotta finish the rest of this scan, because I'm a big fan of this look.

• A couple of smaller features that would be super nice to have!

  @Trevor Townsend I put the scanner through its paces over the weekend with the test build and did not have this show up once. I'd say case solved!

• 3D model of the calibration holder

  Funny thought, but have you tried scanning the holder itself? 😆 And the cards for that matter. I'm honestly really curious how well that would work.

  I noticed! I was able to align the circuit board without a problem too. Fantastic work on getting that sorted! This is really exciting 😁

  Came here to say that since updating, I am also getting both the striped pattern after some alignment operations as well as trimmed sections undeleting itself.

• Electric screwdriver assembly thread

  Finally back on this. Updated my scanner and the first thing I did was try to re-align one of the projects that was previously unalignable. I don't know what you guys did, but I had NONE of the pro...

• Scanning minerals, crystals, and gems

  Seconding what Drew said. You *could* also try the Aesub Transparent spray that will dull the reflectivity but still let some color through. I think that would be your best bet with any scanner, no...

• Missing features

  I'm not a MAF dev, but I can answer #4 at least. You can already do this. I've exported the raw scan data and processed with meshlab for a few especially large scans.

• Electric screwdriver assembly thread

  Just a quick update: I'm still alive, but life stuff happened and I had to step away from my scanning endeavors. Hoping I can get back to this in a couple months!

• Bose Mini Remote - Success after firmware update

  Looking good. Are you using the noise reduction option when scanning? I've tried using it at different levels, but I've honestly found I get the best/smoothest results when I just leave it cranked ...

  Hey guys, I figured I'd start a running thread for this project and update it every time I complete a new scan. My dad gave me an old electric screwdriver that no longer worked so I figured I'd tak...

• Planar Alignment

  @Tom Meeks Haha no problem! I have been busy with work for the past week and haven't had time to do much scanning in that time, but I have more objects lined up when things cool down again!

• Planar Alignment

  It took me a long time, but I finally figured out how to get a thin object to align correctly. ICP alignment is notoriously plagued with dominant plane matching. Meaning if there is a planar surfac...
