Does any body have a 3d scanner in the area to scan parts of watch need to be modified? It is plastic strap. Looking for cost effective solution cause some companies trying to charge price of scanner for 2 models))

HI Victor, if you go to Online 3D Printing Service | Instant 3D Printing Quotes | Hubs, fill in your location, then hit More filters, you’ll get the option to choose Hubs that can help with 3D scanning as well. Hope this helps!

How big are the objects?

Victor have you tried using 123d catch? It’s a great app and I have been able to scan stuff successfully with it. Give it a try!

[Victor_Kusch]

Thank you for response. Will try to play with 123catch. The object is 1 inch x 1inch x 5 inches

Unless the pattern of the watch band is really important and you need the same pattern, it’s best to just design a new watch band from scratch. There aren’t very many critical dimensions so you just need some cheap calipers that measure in mm and design it in cad. I mean it’s mostly a 2D object with a constant thickness, right? There are some watch bands on thingiverse that you can start with.

I have a Creaform Go!Scan and a 3DD eScan as well as Geomagics Wrap software for post-processing. These professional-level tools represent over $40K in value, which is why we charge a modest fee for projects. However, we would discount our services for requests made through 3D Hubs. Let me know what you’ve got and I’ll keep your budget in mind.
