Why 3D scan stuff?
 better than photos for 3D objects
 engage new audiences
 engage old audience in new ways
 scope for multiple uses
 add to a collection without adding 
stuff to your museums storage
 get stuff out of storage
 replace damaged parts
Some types of scanning:
 Laser Triangulation Scanning
 Structured Light Scanning
 Laser Pulse-based 3D Scanning
 Time-of-flight Scanning
 X-ray computed tomography (CT scan)
 Mechanical Contact Scanning
 blah blah blah
ft()鼻ram肘tri/
noun: photogrammetry

Great. So you have a bunch of
digital 3D objects - now what?
Print them!
Put them into peoples hands or on display
Put them in a Museum in a Box!
Wed love to help you.
Share them!
Sketchfab, GitHub, self host. Theres an audience!
Sell them!
