Anyone see this?

iPhone app that creates a 3D model off of a camera phone snapshot.  Apparently it has the ability to spit out an STL directly.

I saw this thing a while ago but it was only "going to have" STL export. I'll have to mess around

with it and see if it is useful. I'm guessing some 3d prints of my niece and nephew's faces are

in the near future.

Hey Bill, my extruder arrived in the mail. I haven't had time to assemble it yet. JC --- On Thu, 4/14/11, Bill Culverhouse <bill.cul...@gmail.com> wrote:

Rock on, Gonna rain this weekend so you got something to play with. :-)

 

Stepper extruder is quite nice. You will be shocked I think. Need any

help give me a shout.

 

I'm currently trying to learn PLA. Got a crystal skull that

came out nice. Very different than ABS tho.
Now my shop smells like I'm cooking waffles out here.

I got a broken tricolor LED yard ornament to stick in there! In the skull, I mean. The ornament is busted, but the color-shifting electronics and LED work fine.

Trimensional:

Fun for a laugh, not really useful for scanning objects. It's

becomes essentially a digital "pin art" toy. Some pretty

hilarious models/prints out of it. It costs $.99 for the prog

then $4.99 for the "full 3d" upgrade to email the STLs out.

 

Jeff: Very nice. How big was the original ornament? A

color changing skull yard ornament would me very cool.

It was a dragonfly or butterfly or some yard arty thing like that. Maybe it was a glowing gnome, I dunno. It was a gift from Crazy Sister In Law #2. Anyway, the support rod broke while assembling it, so I have the solar panel/single tricolor LED/busted bits to play with. I'll see if I can find it. GLOWING SKULL GEARSHIFT KNOB!!!
