    Default First project using the scanning probe

    This is the fiirst thing scanned with the probe and then carved.

    The carving has good detail. I carved it with white oak which left it a bit fuzzy. A couple of minutes with the sanding tool cleaned it up nicely.

    Default First project painted

    This is my first attempt at painting, must improve in this area. One thing the paint does however is point out the detail captured by the probe. Especially in the wings and feet of the Eagle.

    This is carved at about half the height of the original.

    Default Size of the object scanned

    It was 3 1/2 by 4 1/2 inches. It was part of a bronze Plaque. At the highest point it was 1 1/4 inches.
