3J/ 3D Class-a-rama: Step 1, Scanning with Fred

"On January 9, 2014 Fred Kahl scanned in Jessica's 3rd grade class so that they could be 3D printed for their school auction. It was an amazing experience for the whole class and I really enjoyed it too. It was like the Seattle Seahawks winning the Super Bowl!! The kids loved it, and we all had fun. After they had been 3D printed, it was like a freeze-frame class photo!" by S.L./3J

*3J STUDENTS ARE INVITED TO SEND THEIR OWN THOUGHTS, EXPERIENCES AND OBSERVATIONS ABOUT OUR DAY OF SCANNING AT FUNNY GARBAGE AND WE'LL SHARE THEM ON OUR 3D CLASS-A-RAMA BLOG.(PLEASE EMAIL STORIES TO KATE)

One at a time, each member of the class stood on a giant custom designed turntable, while Fred used an an Xbox Kinect game controller to capture the 3D image of his very steady and spectacular subjects.
