Watch how LIANGModel tackles a tricky home decoration challenge using the MetroY 3D scanner. By capturing the precise, irregular geometry of an interior pillar, he was able to reverse-engineer a custom-fit protective base that fits like a glove.

This project highlights the seamless workflow from high-precision laser scanning to a perfectly finished 3D print. Whether you are dealing with complex shapes or shiny surfaces, MetroY makes professional-grade DIY repairs look easy.

Check out the MetroY series for your next engineering project!
