I've used it and I would not recommend it. This is waaay hi end application. Results are not pristine, either. Laser cures on the resin are not perfect. It's best use seems to be machine parts and skull recreations for medical purposes. Scale is the real issue. A 20" stereo lith costs over 1 mill$...lol with your quotes in mind...hence no price estimates. Laser scanning with pc driven automated die grinders are better suited for statuary. This is almost 96% accurate, now. There is a firm in New Jersey, USA that can carve directly into marble. Johnson Artelier
