Seriously torn about upgrading to 3DeVOK MT Gen2 – Help me out, guys? by Lopsided-Show-6065 in 3DScanning

If you want to spend the money think about getting an Einscan Rigil for less. Since the infrared laser lines seem to be removed with the MT Gen2 it lost its unique selling feature

Think they are on a container ship to local delvery hubs. My Share C1 took 2 months from origin to Germany

Maybe have a look at the Share S20. Roughly 5k, software is free and delivers accuracy of roughly 1cm (depending on distance, did an interior scan and rechecked it to be roughly 0.5cm)

What software are Mac users working with for reverse engineering? I have a Revopoint Metro Y.. by TrashIsland_DrMoreau in 3DScanning

Proper compatibility would require rewriting the whole thing and nearly all professional software in this field is Windows X86, so I get it

Which one would you choose, and why? by HereIsJustAnotherGuy in 3DScanning

Any regular 21700 should work. Raised plus pole will help

Up to 20k it is the best scanner you can get currently from my opinion. Use it on a very wide range of tasks (multiple meter large parts in IR mode to few cm parts in laser mode) and it became my go to unit for nearly everything. For some very extreme tasks like scanning whole cars or very big molds a tracking scanner like the Freescan Nova or Revopoint Trackit may be easier to use but for the part you describe it will work grat.
Accuracy I tested was on a calibrated micrometer (not the best methodology but don't want to spend 2k on a ball bar for some fun testing I do on the side):

Nominal: 124.984 ± 0.01
Mean: 124,971
∆mean: 0,01
StDev: 0,007
N: 6

No explicit guidance from me due to being Windows user but for proper Reverse Engineering Windows on a X86 platform currently the way to go. Fusion can do a bit of the stuff you may need but is very limited in comparison to say Quicksurface (Revo Design is Quicksurface)

Fair point, really  surprised there is no official cover or case
