Hi i downloaded a STL file of a intricate vase, must have 500k faces, i want to cut it in half horizontally and just print the lower part
I tried putting a plane through it and delete the top half,…well after about a hour of watching the spinning ball, i shut the computer down
Any one got a work around this?

I have one of the scanect mark 2 scanners, I took them about 6 months to get the apps sorted out, so many little problems, bad battery life , unable to calibrate
About a month ago we got it all dialed in,but still we’re having problems
I’m on complete lock down for 2 weeks so I’ll play with it more
Anyone else out there into scanning yet?

And what do think about the scanner?

So are we good to upgrade now?
