bryan's 3d scanned/cnc cut/vac formed face


Bryan used my 3d scanner to scan his face last week. He patched the meshes together in MeshLab (free software) because my Scan Studio software was acting up for some strange reason. The MeshLab stuff worked great! Then we made a cut file in RhinoCam and he cut the mesh in pink foam. Then he used his DIY vacuum former to pull a form in polystyrene. It worked like a charm. This was a part of a piece he made for gallery night.
