A Note About Our Target Audience: 

This kit is for those that enjoy DIY projects. It 
will require a good bit of tinkering to get the 
results you want. If you have questions, which 
you likely will, make it an opportunity to 
become a member of our forum 
(

http://community.scanse.io/c/3d-scanner

). We 

hope you have fun building it and learning how 
3D scanners work.
