123D Catch Scan and Print: Boot
I wrote about how I started this project under "Fun Blog 1" on my blog page. In this blog, I described how I used the app 123D Catch to create a 3D model of a boot of mine.
After completing my work for this blog, I then continued to edit this model through Meshmixer. This is another free Autodesk program, which I downloaded from this link.
After downloading this to my computer, I saved my 3D model from Fun Blog 1 as an object file through 123D Catch. After doing this, I opened this object file in Meshmixer.
From this point, I then had to clean up the model by removing all of the surface area that can be seen in the first thumbnail picture here. Using commands in Meshmixer, I removed all of the excess surface area, closed open surfaces and made the object solid. The resulting model can be seen in the next thumbnail picture to the left.
