Have the same CD that Wolf is talking about and had a digital camera and the CD came with the circle with divisions on it that you could print it out. So I sat down to figure out what I would need to use it: 1. Camera stand with adjustable height and angle (You would just have to set it at the right height to set the camera at right angles to the object, then the camera would not need to be moved again) 2. Lazy susan to set the circle (and object) on, and could mark the surface that the lazy susan sat on so the marks would line up properly as you turned the lazy susan 16 times. 3. The patience to do all of that drawing around the outlines. The article in the magazine that described how it worked admitted that the results were iffy, because it only worked on the OUTLINE of the object. Details like a hole drilled through the object would get lost. The only real thing that was cool about it to me (and the only reason I considered trying it) was that the program would take all the photos after you traced the outline and combine them into a single uv map for the object. But the lighting had to be near perfect or that wouldn't look right either. There are devices out there that can make it very easy to scan objects into your computer, but they cost several thousand bucks (that I ain't got to spend on a hobby). In the end, I just decided to download free objects, use Poser, or make booleans in Bryce for objects.

This is not my "second childhood". I'm not finished with the first one yet.
