Bud,
Someone told me that our local community college has a course in laser
cutting. After completion you can go back and use the laser for later
projects. Might be worth inquiring. I saw a 3D scanner in action at Robert
Morris University near Pittsburg. I don't think their's was portable, but you
could scan Rapido's HO FA4.
