I had a privilege to bring this little scan to life. A palaeontologist called Mike said his wish out-laud- to 3d-print the Xenoposeidon vertebra and so we began. He provided me with really thorough scan of the bone thats faces I had to reduce.. let’s say a lot but still preserve the good resolution. I made some tests regarding the support in the 3D printer and you can see some of the process and it’s result in the gallery below.
If you are interested to know more about this prehistorical piece and the creature, to which the part belonged to, you can read more here.
Also it wouldn’t be possible without Fablab RUC and it’s equipment and open door for creating soles :)
