Barter / Trade / Sell ?

Postby toddmichael » Sat Jan 23, 2016 10:25 pm

I bought a NextEngine 3d Scanner for scanning very fine detailed small pieces of jewelry. Did surprisingly well for larger pieces, about 25 mm or a quarter or larger. But isn't working for what I have intended. So my loss will be someones gain. I would think if your doing or working surfaces, and not fine detail this would be a product for your needs. Or if your not intending on using for jewelry, but sculptures and what have you, this is perfect for you.

I have see may people use such scanner for larger sculpted objects and scanning them and then outputting this in scale to other ideas.

Software http://www.nextengine.com/products/scan ... s/overview
Gallery of scans http://www.nextengine.com/gallery

I purchased off Ebay last fall, used a few times. Will re-post there if necessary, just don't want to lose more money with the ridiculous fees. 30% selling and listing fee and losing $400 to $500 seems insane.

Software and log in included, since it has the login information, can be used without transferring the license. I installed the software and anyway I went.

Any questions I can help with, fire away..

Hey, if you need to scan jewelry you can try for example Artec Spider. It has 50 microns accuracy. Should be enough.

At 27,600.00 I would hope so.

LOL, thanks for the input.

If you have one of these, I can send you work if you want some?

Hi Todd,

I get a lot of engagement rings that need a curved wedding ring to go with it. Does it do a good job at capturing the shape of e-rings?

I have a buddy in Chicago that uses it for that. I bought for scanning gemstones, and have never tried to use it for anything else. I got more comfortable using my MDX 15 as a scanner years ago and now just use it for those applications.
