Do you actually need it scanned or do you want an accurate drawing or 3D model of it?

If you have it scanned you will essentially have a point cloud which will require post processing and usually some additional measurement to turn that into a model.

If you want a model it may be better to look for someone who can measure it on something like an OGP ZIP 250 or one of the many Baty machines and draw it for you from there.

Really the way you measure it depends on what you want to do with it i.e. make more, create a drawing for back up if you ever need another or digitise it for a game/piece of software.

Hi, I can help with this, how soon do you need the scanning done? It's just I spend most of my time in France but am back around the 4th of Feb for a week.

Hi Tony, I would do but it's telling me I can't email as I haven't been a member for more than 24 hours, which is silly as i have been a member longer than that. Try howard.baker@btconnect.com, that's if they let you do that on this site...
