What I am wanting to do is find a way to didgitize various parts made out of brass. I want to scan them and somehow get the file into a form to get into autocad. For simplicity, say I have a flat circle made of brass. I want to put in the scanner and somehow get a file that will go into the autocad program. There I could modify or correct it. What were after is to take these parts which are reproductions of parts off muzzleloaders from over 200 years ago and be able to get a didgitized file to then use in a cad program on a CNC milling machine. I have taken one course in autocad 10 years ago so I don't know much. Just what direction to start. What format would you save the scan in for example? Thanks Ken
