    This is the biggest scan I've done so far at 216mm in height. It took 3 passes on the turntable at various angles.
    I used Meshmixer to lightly smooth a couple of areas where the alignment left marks but any remaining creases or wrinkles are from the original part and not scan artifacts.

    I still struggle to scan flat circular objects, which is the most popular type of thing I scan (usually a replacement cover for something). I'm using a piece of plywood with gentle grain to help orient upon turning the object around. I use a binder clip to prop hold the circular object upright so it's standing on edge. Interestingly, binder clips completely vanish from scans, the scanner can't see them at all (great for me). With this setup, I can at least get a few sets of scans that I am trying to clean up with Meshlab/Meshmixer.

    Also, I used to have a lot of problems with dark black plastic items (either matte or gloss). Others have recommended some expensive sprays to cover the surface. A light dusting from a can of Tinactin foot spray is working great for me, and it wipes off clean later!
