3d Scanning & Printing

NOTE:  This service is for local residents only within driving distance of my home in the Town of Stouffville, Ont.  You will drop off your item to be scanned then pick it up when completed.

• Your item will be scanned using a professional-grade 3D scanner to capture your item with incredible detail. To ensure a successful scan, items must be between 30mm and 200mm.

• After scanning, your model will be printed in either resin or filament.  The printing material depends on the size and complexity of your item. We’ll select the material that will work best for your project.
  

• Pricing starts at $20 for small, straightforward projects.  Price will increase for larger items.  Your price will include both scanning and printing your item.  Once you submit a photo and details through our online form, we’ll assess the item and send you a price estimate via email.

THINGS TO CONSIDER WITH SCANNING

Most items will scan well if there aren't many recessed areas or holes. Items with recessed areas may still scan, but the print could look blotchy inside. The photo below shows an ideal item to scan on the left, while the right is a bit more challenging.

To use this service, please complete the form below.
Upload one or two photos of the item you'd like scanned. Once I review your submission and confirm that your item can be successfully scanned, I’ll email you a quote.

If you accept the quote, you can drop off your item curbside at my home in the Town of Stouffville, Ontario. My address and detailed drop-off instructions will be provided with your quote.

You’ll be notified when your item is ready for pickup after the scanning is complete.   

If the 3d scan doesn't meet the best quality, there will be no charge for scanning your item. Unsuccessful scans are very rare.

Scanning Spray Information

For items that are dark, shiny, or transparent, a scanning spray may be required to ensure an accurate and detailed scan. I use AESUB Blue and AESUB Orange, both of which are industry-standard sprays designed specifically for 3D scanning. These sprays apply a temporary matte coating that significantly improves scan quality without damaging your item.

To date, I’ve used these sprays on over 175 items with no issues. They are self-vanishing (sublimating), meaning they usually disappear on their own after scanning. In rare cases where residue remains, it can be easily wiped off with a soft cloth.

If you have concerns about spray use on your item, feel free to reach out before scanning.

DISCLAIMER

We take great care in handling your item and will make every effort to ensure it remains in its original condition throughout the scanning process. While instances are extremely rare, we kindly note that we cannot accept responsibility for any damage that may occur due to unforeseen circumstances or the necessary use of scanning spray.
