Has anyone tried 3D scanning and then printing an object? I’m a beginner at modeling, and learning modeling has really been such a headache for me.

As the title says, I’ve been wanting to try 3D printing a part recently. Its edge is damaged, but the seller says I have to replace the whole thing, which feels like such a waste. If there are any online tutorials available, please share them with me for reference. Thanks, everyone.

    Could you please post a picture? I will tell you if it is doable.

    Yes, 3D scanning may help. There is still a learning curve, though. For example, cleaning and patching scans will have to be done in 3D software anyway.
