Wow, fantastic scan !
Any chance you could upload the stl here ?
I'm liking the sound of this scanner the more I read about it.

I won't upload the total scan...yet, but here is the scan of the hand

Nice one, thanks.
Trying to get a look at few sample STLs before I place an order although I'm pretty much convinced already.
There are example scans from Einscan on their Sketchfab page
https://sketchfab.com/einscan
but be aware there are also Einscan-pro scans
Thanks, I'll check them out too. 👍
Just got my scanner today, here's a couple of my first attempts.
No post scan processing or clean-up.

that looks great.Can you tell more about the original dino,
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!
The expensive sprays is just to add a white matt surface to the object, you can use whatever you like, even hairspray is great to make the object matt.
those expensive sprays lets you wipe it off without any residue left http://3dprintboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png
if you scan an object with light and dark areas there will be a surface (scale) difference in the final scan,
so it's better to make the object one solid colour or tone down the difference between the dark and lighter parts.
Scanning geometric smooth objects is not easy, because the software has no reference where one part ends and the next scan part begins, it needs a reference,
a trick it to stick small black dots in a random pattern on the surface and inside to let to software see those reference points.

I've been trying chalk spray recently.
Works pretty well, easy to remove and cheap.
I've tried the dots, and also tried using stick on rubber feet which are raised rectangular shapes cut into irregular triangles. The problem is allowing the scanner to simultaneously see registration marks on both sides of flat or hollow parts. If it doesn't see enough registration points simultaneously, it won't mesh.
I will next try making a pair of long sticks with one irregular registration end, and flat faced magnets embedded on the other end. These should clamp together through flat objects, and stick out far enough to be visible from all angles.
I just got some of this stuff ...... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3312579843...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Gives a nice even, light blue coating which scans very well and cleans of easily.
I would be very interested to some pics of some objects painted with this coating, before and after cleaning :)
just to see what residue is left behind, if any.
No residue at all, it contains talcum powder so it just wipes clean off.
I just wiped this with my finger (2nd picture) but if you apply it lightly enough, you can even blow it off.
It didn't scan well at all without the coating, being jet black.

Something weird going on with this thread, I can only see pictures people have posted from page 7 onward ???
Anyone else finding this ?
You could be right. Although it usually leaves a dead link behind when you delete pictures and don't edit the post too.
