We had a guy come in trying to sell us one of those it had me intrigued until I realized it couldn’t do anything bigger then hand sized parts not very useful for us. Seems like everything we reverse engineer is bigger so we do everything old school
Cardboard cut outs
 
Cardboard cut outs

Yeah sometimes we do that but most the time it’s easier for me to take measurements with a quick sketch then draw in CAD. Then if needed I’ll burn test pieces out of super thin material and make adjustments from there. I get a lot of cardboard cut outs through the door that I just draw in cad and burn for customers
 
Damnity damn damn! When i got there to pick my parents up from the market my mom was so sick outta nowhere that she left immediately and me and pops packed up the stuff! Then when we got home she had me take her to the emergency room and not only did they keep her but apparently she has had gall stones that never got found and diagnosed and they are so severe now that they had to schedule her for surgery today to remove her gall bladder! Should be downstairs now cuz surgery is at 3! Glad she didn’t wait and went to ER right away! :yoinks::(

Thats odd. I never seen one that was only for small parts. Mine was an accessory that attached to my 4 meter faro arm. So I was limited to a distance of 13 ft, then I had to use what we called leap frogging.
We looked at other models that were just a pistol size scanner and your only limitation is how long of a usb cord u have from the laser to the laptop.
Here is an old pic of a foundry pattern I scanned. The guy in the pic was a company engineer that asked if he could try it. So I took a pic for him.
