[Daniel] sent us his entry to the Epilog laser cutter difficulty on instructables. He made a book scanner, mainly out of discovered parts. The bulk of the job was salvaged from dumpsters, though if you’re not comfortable with that, the free section of craigslist may be able to do the job. The cameras are packed with CHDK, utilizing StereoData maker, as well as custom software application to compile the pictures into PDFs. They did a amazing task of documenting every step of the construction, including practical tips for a few of the more challenging parts. There are a number of videos in the instructable, so be sure to inspect them out. We’re especially amused by the additional step of making the picture captions visually interesting. At 79 steps, it’s a long read, however well worth it.
