I have a friend who is great at 3-D Printing. While not a rocketeer, he's more than willing to print anything rocketry related that I need for the cost of filament. He just printed some Centuri nose cones for me which turned out great.
I'd like to have him print a BT-55 sized Honest John nose cone so that I can clone the Estes #1919 kit. I'd also like to duplicate some of the engine retention clips for the Cox Honest John RTF rocket. I have original plastic versions of both but no STL files.
While I've looked at some YouTube videos on how to scan objects using my cell phone and a turntable, I'd rather get professional results. Can anyone recommend a commercial 3-D scanning service who would be willing to 3-D scan these two items and generate STL files? Any idea what this service might cost?
Thanks for any insight you can provide.
