BSG: Deadlock and all the DLC is only $49.42 plus tax. I haven't played it yet but the reviews are solid and I'm both a strategy game nerd and a BSG nerd so it feels like a slam dunk.

it’s come a long way in the last couple of years already. High-end scanners are amazing, but even then having an experienced operator (which I am not!) for post-processing is key.
I was able to duplicate this clip for a fridge drawer. You can’t buy them anymore so I was pretty happy about it.

The 3D scanning to 3D printing pipeline is far more complex than I'd expected. It looks like I'm learning Blender whether I want to or not in order to make scans into usable .stl files.
