I am a sculptor with a slightly smaller that 22" x 12" x 12" work that I wonder if I can get scanned in your "photo booth" in order to print on my MakerBot 2 Replicator. If so, will I be able to use the scan right away or will I have to figure out a way to put it in MakerBot format? Also, about how much will it cost. Many thanks!
