    Default My First Scan

    While at the dollar store today I picked up a 50 cent plastic wall figurin and decided to scan it with my new scanner probe.
    The figure is of a squirl sitting on a stump.
    As soon as I figure out how to attach a download I will be more than happy to share the pattern.

    Default Scanning is slow

    This figure was about 2.5" X 3.5" and took 1 1/2 hours. I had the probe program set on Best mode.

    Very nice! Did you have to fasten it down onto a sled or a backing board?

    Excellent choice all around and a great example of what the probe can do.

    Default Second Scan

    I made my sled with 3/4" wood and put an acrylic sheet on top to have a flat surface to glue to. The Figures were hot glued down in two places. Here are the .ptn files for the Squirl and a Mermaid
