It doesn’t matter where in the world they are. Having a place where you could go to someone, like the Life Support situation here, and be able to, “Does someone have a scanner? Could they do this job?” You can dial it in locally. We ended up buying a scanner in this particular case. We went to our friends at the UPS Store down in San Diego. We wanted to go and have it scanned, and it was really impossible. I tried to recreate it in CAD and I was spending way too many hours trying to do it. I’ve got more than two decades of CAD experience, and this part just didn’t have a straight, flat line on it.
Because we couldn’t create the geometry from scratch, it was just too impossible, which is really unusual. We had a particular part that we needed to scan. We had this big issue this last week actually for a client. Maybe you just need help creating a model. It could be a number of other things that you really need in and around the world of 3D printing. I love the way he puts it because that’s how it feels when your printer goes down and when you can’t do something about it and you can’t fix the model or whatever. This is about life support for 3D printing. We had a couple of these kinds of episodes going on recently where we’ve talked about various sites that are helping people learn 3D printing or get tech support for 3D printing, and that’s what this is really about. He’s got something new to talk about today.
We have a returning guest today, Buzz Baldwin from 3D Printlife.
