In today's video, I test and compare 3 different 3D scanners and tell you which one is the best and if you should get a 3D scanner. Thanks to Onshape for sponsoring today's video. Check them out at https://Onshape.pro/NextLayer.

It's the dream of every 3D printing enthusiast. You see something in the physical world, scan it in seconds, and print it out in an exact replica on your 3D printer just like that. Up until recently, this has only been possible with commercial scanners that cost tens of thousands of dollars, and tons of training to use properly.

These days all of that is changing, and just like 3D printers have become more and more available to consumers, we're also seeing the first wave of consumer grade 3D scanners hit the market. But are they any good?

I tested three different solutions for at-home scanning, and in this video I'm going to compare them all and tell you which one is the best. Stick around to the end because I'll also answer the question that's on everyone's mind... Should you get a 3D scanner?
