    Rotary scanning with a touch probe.

    Here are a couple of screenshots of a scan done on a Shop Sabre machine today with a touch probe. The scan was done across X and on a rotary axis. It took about 5.5 hours. I don't know the exact settings that the operator used, but since it's an archery bow grip and a smallish item I'd say the increments were pretty small.

    I ran the stl file through Rhino and surfaced a couple of views to get the screenshots.
