    forget a scanner - learn to use digital calipers and openscad: http://www.openscad.org/

    the only low budget scanners currently worth their salt are the scan-in-a-box: https://www.scaninabox.com/
    and the einscan scanner: https://www.einscan.com/
    Yes that is low budget for scanners :-)

    But you will find that not only is it much quicker to measure and model a part from scratch, it's also a LOT more accurate.
    Unless you've got $10,000 to spare - scanners just aren't as good as learning how to design parts from scratch. And it's easier than you think.
