[@MCsCreations]

Really interesting device indeed, Mario! Fantastic review! 😃 It looks like a pretty powerful tool! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@AerialWaviator]

Interesting product. It seems still early, but lots of potential. Thanks for reviewing and sharing. Appreciate all the TIPs. Nice to know upfront, even though I don't have a scanner. :)

[@thenewyorkfloridanerds6675]

I was 5 steps from returning it. I'm going to give it another shot. Thank you

[@Rcschim]

Now that I have a new, more powerful Smartphone I will try it also once again, and see if it works better...

@@Rcschim How is it with the new phone? About to buy the Miraco but may opt for this

I think you're reading my mind. I've been looking into 3D scanners and photogrammertry recently. Amazing price for the technology. I want one. Link says they can't ship to the US. 😔 That Johnny Five picture was hilarious. I saw a couple of the real Johnny Five robots when I visited the science museum L.A.. in 1988. The second movie was released that summer. Really amazing technology. And the Posche 911 Carrera. My dream car since I was a kid. And for some reason, I just realized that Carrera means "race" in Spanish. Thanks for the cool video. Greetings from the USA. -Hector

[@Rcschim]

Johnny Nr 5... that brings back memories from the 80ies, right? Loved it... Yes, Carrera! Check my vintage 911 sc (super Carrera from 1981) I have a video up from it. Sold it tho... not so much a fan of vintage cars and their failures;)

[@HrDux]

@@Rcschim Just saw your 911 SC video. Beautiful auto!! I hope you got a good price for yours. The price of one here in the US is about 100k USD for one in good/perfect condition. 50k for a fixer-upper... I need more money.

[@Rcschim]

@@HrDux thanks to US customers since the 80ties the 911 survived! the american market was always important to Porsche! The one I had was the first one with the new (kinda ugly) bumper requirement. and this was due to american regulations regarding bumpers ;) 911s have very good value retention over time!

I really struggled scanning a plane, because too many smooth surfaces

[@Rcschim]

I found it hard to scan objects with sharp edges. there is where it looses the tracking - and then you're spoiled... on a shiny kitchen water outlet, i used a water spray / powder suger mix to get some scanning done (don't have a 3d scan spray) didn't try the markers yet - sure nice as well.

[@jas-FPV]

@@Rcschim The plane was a funjet because I wanted to print an EDF holder. The markers, I tried them but you would have needed a lot. I crumbled some paper to little „balls“ well not ball just crumbled them to any rough shape and stuck them with needles. Since I only needed to back portion I could easily ignore them or cut them later in the model

[@canofanger]

Use some cheap dry shampoo spray on your surfaces. It is just the right amount of powder to dull the surface and get good results from the scanner.

[@Hazdazos]

Is this hardware tied to the app and software and an internet link? Will it stop working when Creality eventually shuts down the servers for this device or does everything run local? Ive been interested in a scanner for a while, but worried about another piece of e-waste if it depends on cloud processing on Creality servers or similar.

[@Rcschim]

I didn't look for other software, maybe there's some open source? As far as I remember there's no cloud processing needed. And in general you have the choice between mobile app and PC app. At least one of those options should survive if creality disappears (which I doubt). Greets!

[@BabaChannelIndonesia]

how much media coverage can be scanned? Can ferrets scan a complete car bumper? thankyou

[@Rcschim]

Yes, bumper should work, but since it is large and lots of similar looking flat surface, you need to apply some making stickers to add features for the scanner

[@BabaChannelIndonesia]

@@Rcschim thankyou broo

[@Drone-Pilot]

You said hot shoe, but it looks like cold shoe, anyway still watching the video just thought I’d ask about that

[@Drone-Pilot]

Looks pretty good for the price, I’m impressed because I’ve tried so many apps with my iPad Pro and get hopeless results even when using grids to assist. But I suppose it depends on what you want from it, the prints you did are impressive, the animal you printed at 75% was impressive

[@Rcschim]

Yep, cold shoe, I mixed this up...

[@GCEXTREMEMN]

i just got the CR Ferret, mine didnt come with any tacker points, where can i get those?

[@Rcschim]

If you have a 🖨 just use some sticker paper and print them yourself! Just black dots, maybe 5 to 10mm

[@madebykayo647]

Can you scan teeth mold ?

[@Rcschim]

Not sure, maybe too small, shiney and not accurate enough? But I didn't try ;)

[@The_Unobtainium]

yet another one being sent something for free with no influence. And of course the product is fantastic...

[@Rcschim]

Are you fed up with KZbin marketers? So I'm I. I try not to be one of those shills. My reviews are honest and if you found something here that's misleading or over praising please give me feedback, I take it seriously! Greets, Mario
