Hi All,

I have an object I would like 3D scanned so I can subsequently print copies. Can anyone recommend any UK companies / organisations which can do this please.

What sort of resolution do you need, what are you scanning? If particularly high resolution is not needed, maybe check out 3Dhubs or maybe get it modelled by a CAD designer

A friend of mine has made a clay sculpture of her dog and would love a 3D printed version, so the plan wold be to scan this and print it.
