Be careful when you are researching DIY scanners to check the date of the posts. Like all things relating to 3D printing, developments are coming thick and fast. Always check out the newest posts.

At the moment I'm looking to make a 3D scanner using information from the Net, but first I'm working on making the laser part so I will know the correct dimensions for its holder in the scanner I make. I like the one shown in this thread.
