I had a part 3d scanned once. The model was a PITA to work with, but it saved us quite a bit of trial and error, and the finished product fit much better than if I had continued to try to design the part entirely in solidworks.

I have a reprap kit coming in a week or two. I'm looking forward to assembling it and seeing what it can do. I know the parts they create aren't all that great, but it should be fun to play with.
