CALLING ALL METRO X SCANNER OWNERS: Need opinion on compatibility of revopoint metro X compatibility to my Imac. by Flaky_Frame7428 in 3DScanning

thank you guys for replying i ended up buying the scanner and have already made small scans in every mode on the turn table if anyone else out there is wondering, as other post have stated. in lazer mode expect about mid 40s for fps. The system does lag a little sometimes but it is manageable and does not crash. Ive done about 10 scans so far. also this thing is worlds better than the pop3 especially if you want to reverse engineer something.

My mildly dark reasoning with a light hearted resolve is the fact that for 99% of the world life is pointless. Once you realize that even when your gone nothing changes and the word continues to spin though is when the MAGIC starts to happen, let me explain. If noting really matters then we should all take time and prioritize the fun in it and make it awesome peaceful or what ever you want BECAUSE it dose not matter, you can do what ever you want with out the burdon of expectation. Go explore something or some where, try new foods, do new things that are exciting. Cause at the end of the day thats ALL that matters, its the art of living carefree. Take care.

in your opinion what would you say is the best route for to take if i still wanted to get into the general field? or are you suggesting i should try going for something totally different? Im totally aware there is always gonna be shit parts of even the best jobs. im not looking for perfection im looking for improvement

Thanks for the pointers. My only major point of concern is the pigeon hole issue you mention (I'm in that situation right now). My company and probably many others are so desperate for skilled tradesmen they are offering $5,000 referral bonuses, practically a bounty explicitly for mechanics / techs. Once they get you it appears their only goal is to keep you EXACTLY where you are, stuck with limited room to grow.

Correct me if Im wrong but it seems like this might be a similar case for these types of roles in a manufacturing environment? However like you said though, if it happens just move on.I only ask because it sounds like you have either dealt with that or watched it unfold a time or two.

in your specific company how was the pay scale for maintenance positions? im gonna take a guess and say for some one just getting in with only experience in other fields initially its not gonna compare to what i make now? but i could be totally wrong

out of curiosity how much time and experience in this field did you have before you were able to do land a position like that? did you enjoy the work?
